Neither the Hon. Editor nor the KAS Council as a whole is answerable for opinions put forward in this work. Each contributor is alone responsible for the contents of his/her paper. 2. ‘Notes for the Guidance of Contributors’ can be found on the Society’s website. 3. Members are urged to encourage friends and colleagues, interested in archaeology/ history, to join the Society. Young people (under 25 years) are offered a much reduced membership fee. An expansion of membership would enable the Society to publish a larger volume of material and provide more practical assistance for private researches. Information about the Society’s activities and a membership application form may be downloaded from the website:www. kentarchaeology.org.uk. 4. Subscriptions are due on the lst of January each year and should be paid only to the Hon. Membership Secretary. It would be a great convenience if members could pay their subscriptions by banker’s order. Members who do not pay by this means are requested to settle their subscriptions promptly. (A notice will be sent out in December for renewal of membership the following January). Details of subscription rates and payment by banker’s order may be obtained from the Hon. Membership Secretary, to whom any change of address should be notified. (Mrs S. Broomfield, 8 Woodview Crescent, Hildenborough, Tonbridge, Kent, TN11 9HD; membership@kentarchaeology.org.uk) 5. Legacies have contributed much to the strength and independence of the Society. The Hon. Treasurer would be pleased to hear from any member who would like to bequeath money or other assets. Additional contributions in the form of donations, including those for particular activities of the Society, are also very welcome and should be sent to the Hon. Treasurer (B.F.
