  • Some Problems of the North Downs Trackway in Kent
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society SOME PROBLEMS OF THE NORTH DOWNS TRACKWAY IN KENT By REV. H. W. R. Liman, S.J., M.A.(0xon.) THE importance of this pre-historic route from the Continent to the ancient habitat of man in Wiltshire has long been recognized. In the Surrey Archceological Collections of 1964 will be found an attempted re-appraisal of its route through the county of Surrey. Although the problems connected with its passage through Kent are fewer owing to its being better preserved, there are some points which I think still deserve attention—the three river crossings of the Darenth, the Medway and the Stour; the crossing of the Elham valley; and the passage to Canterbury of the branch route from Eastwell Park, known as the Pilgrims' Way. It may be worth while, before dealing with the actual crossings, to note a few general characteristics. Mr. I. D. Margary—our most eminent authority on ancient roads in Britain—has pointed out the dual nature of this trackway. It com- prises a Ridgeway and a Terraceway. The first runs along the crest of the escarpment. The second runs parallel to it, usually at the point below the escarpment where the slope flattens out into cultivation. In Kent for the most part the Terraceway has survived more effectually than the Ridgeway. It is for much of its length used as a modern road, marked by the familiar sign 'Pilgrims' Way'. Except at its eastern terminus the Ridgeway has not been so lucky, although it can be traced fairly accurately by those who take the trouble to do so.

  • COUNTRYSIDE Page 1 of 16
    Page 1 of 16 COUNTRYSIDE Introduction 12.1 Shepway has a rich and diverse landscape ranging from the rolling chalk downland and dry valleys of the North Downs, through the scarp and dip slope of the Old Romney Shoreline, to Romney Marsh and the unique shingle feature of the Dungeness peninsula. This diversity is reflected in the range of Natural Areas and Countryside Character Areas, identified by English Nature and the Countryside Agency respectively, which cover the District. The particular landscape and wildlife value of large parts of the District is also recognised through protective countryside designations, including Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Heritage Coastline, as well as the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The countryside also plays host to a wide range of activities and it is recognised that the health of the rural economy and the health of the countryside are inter-linked. A function of the Local Plan is to achieve a sustainable pattern of development in the countryside. This involves a balance between the needs of rural land users and maintaining and enhancing countryside character and quality. 12.2 This balance is achieved in two main ways:- a. By focussing most development in urban areas, particularly on previously developed sites and ensuring that sufficient land is allocated to meet identified development requirements, thus reducing uncertainty and speculation on ‘greenfield’ sites in the countryside. b. By making firm policy statements relating to: the general principles to be applied to all proposals in the countryside; specific types of development in the countryside; and the protection of particularly important areas.

  • The Lyminge Newsletter
    THE LYMINGE NEWSLETTER For the communities of LYMINGE, ETCHINGHILL, RHODES MINNIS and POSTLING Produced by THE LYMINGE ASSOCIATION April 2020 www.lyminge.org.uk From The Lyminge Association as accurate as possible when going to print - 23 March Trying to write a newsletter when there is so much going on in our lives it’s very difficult particularly when looking for the positives. We are certainly very lucky to live the living where we are in the countryside and with a very helpful and supportive community. As many of our community are going into self-isolation we are encouraged by the way others are willing and selflessly able to support them. However, now it’s not the time to forget the announcement you hear on planes “to put on your face mask before helping others“ which is very important in this current climate. Many of the events originally planned have been cancelled or suspended. The newsletter tries to reflect as accurately as possible the state of these particular events but I would recommend you check on their availability. On P4 and 9 you will find takeaway menus for both The Coach and Horses and The Gatekeeper. These, together with the other takeaways in our area, are to be applauded for providing a service; so please support them as best as you are able in order to maintain their business. On P17 you will find the details on how to maintain your health under the current circumstances. Needless to say these may have already been updated and I would encourage you to keep in touch with the government and NHS news releases.
