Current developments

 

With invaluable inputs from Joyce Ainsley, Jeremy Dunhill, and Sue Chambers, recent months have seen major extensions in the ‘Street scenes’ section of the site – in particular regarding coal hole covers, door knockers, fanlights, old street names, and weathervanes.

 

Under guidance and authorship of Geoff Downer, work has been in hand for over a year on Cathedral building stones.  For over 30 building stones, this new Section provides descriptions of the stones, examples of where to find them in the cathedral, and an A/Z index of memorials.  These pages were released for public viewing at end March 2020.

 

The new pages also include coverage of the objects to be seen in the Kent War Memorial garden - all 10 of them.  In addition, we have added items to the index to other items to be found in the Precincts.  Finally, don't miss the results of our recent research on the Dean Farrar memorial lamp post - in print here for the first time!
