Mon. 9th July, at 8pm Jean Stirk is going to give us a talk on ‘The History of Paper-making in Darent Valley’. We were hoping to produce a booklet on the Roman Granary in Westminster Field but the excavator, Brian Philp, has refused us permission to print any of his photos or diagrams. However we are working an a book on the Railway in this area, particularly Farningham Road Station. This we hope to have printed in June. Text Box: Text Box: Horton Kirby Football Club “Horton Kirby FC had a middle of the road season” reports club spokesman Derek Chambers, “a good start and ending to the season that was not helped by a bad run in mid season.” However a good run in several cups made the season quite interesting. The club is always looking for young talented players for its Gravesend League premier division team (home ground: Westminster Field). Anybody interested should phone Jason on 07841687657 or Derek on 07967050798 Text Box: A new website for walkers in Kent There’s no doubt about it, walking is good for you.
