WHAT'S IN A NAME?...For many years we have been naming our streets to remember people and places, and the irony is we then forget who and why we commemorated them. I have compiled a list of the street names and as much as I can of the reasons. Have a look, please email me any additions, edits and corrections. When completed we should have a comprehensive and permanent archive. Notes from Kent Arcaeological Society from Brian Whiston,
After the "flood" of complaints about blocked gullies KCC have asked for our help identifying the problems.
We have submitted a Parish wide survey of all Gullies to KCC, noting good, blocked and "Hotspots", those we know have caused problems in recent days. KCC sprang into action and many hotspots have been cleaned.
