2008 Plans

  • 4 June: Steering Group formed based on responses to questionnaire. Bob and Norma Baxter; Nigel and Lis Heriz-Smith, John Jackson, and David Bage agreed to try and set up a Society.
  • 16 July: Cheese and (bring your own) Wine Party at Forge Cottage. 20 attended. Purpose of Society outlined; draft Constitution available for comment; some ideas on future activities discussed.
  • 7th September followed up on 29th February 2004: Marking the Parish Boundaries. Six walks to the six points where our Parish meets boundaries of other Parishes. Not a formal “beating of the bounds” as we could not arrange public access in time. We met in Park Farm Orchard (junction of Toll Lane and Lynsted Lane). Six groups walked to boundary markers put up by the Society and tied sprigs of Lime Tree to the posts - the name “Lynsted” has strong associations with Lime trees. You can see some photos of the day here.
  • 25th August: The Annual Village Church Fete. Not a Society activity but we were able to advertise the Society at this highly successful event.
  • 26th September: A coffee morning in support of Macmillan Cancer Relief in Lynsted Church Community Room - 10.30 a.m. to noon. Bring cakes and biscuits to raise funds.
  • 2 October: 8 o’clock in the Lynsted Church Community Room. An illustrated talk from local historian, Arthur Percival, MBE, talking about “The history and buildings of Doddington” to inspire us to research the history of our own parish.  Arthur is a very widely sought after speaker in and around the Faversham area.
  • 26th November: 8 o’clock in the Community Room of Lynsted Church. A general meeting has been called by the Lynsted with Kingsdown Society Steering Group to found The Society, adopt the constitution and elect the committee. View the Agenda here.
