(3) Changes of address and errors in the list of members should be notified at once to the Hon.

Information as regards the Society's activities, copies of the Rules and forms of appUcation for membership may be obtained from the Hon. General Secretary.1 (5) The annual subscription of ten shillings covers aU the privUeges of membership, but additional contributions in the form of annual or occasional donations to the IUustrations Fund, towards excavation work, or for the general purposes of the Society, and new subscribers to the Records Branch, are invited and are always very welcome.

ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR 1940. ^kc rctolojjral Jlxrrietg REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER, 1940. THE Council present to members their eighty-second Report and the relevant Accounts covering a year during which the activities of the Society have been greatly restricted by war conditions. MEMBERSHIP. The following figures show the position as regards membership : December December Honorary Members Affiliated Societies Other Societies and Institutions Life Members Ordinary Members Total Members Societies in Union 1939. 4 9 72 65 793 1940 4 7 73 65 728 943 37 877 36 The decrease in membership since the outbreak of war exceeds 100, and though not unexpected is disappointing. The Council repeat their appeal to members to continue their support of the Society, which cannot function without the financial backing given by their contributions. CHANGES. The Council record with regret the death of Major P. H. G. Powell-Cotton, who had been a member of the Society for nearly forty years, and had served on their body for twenty-five years. Major Powell-Cotton's vacancy on the Council has been filled by the election of Mr. Frank W. Jessup, B.A., LL.B. xxxvi REPORT, 1940. Another loss by death is that of Mr. F. C. AUwork, F.C.A., one of the honorary Auditors of the Society. Shortly after the close of the year under review the deaths occurred of Viscount Wakefield and Mr. Arthur Hussey, Vice- Presidents of the Society. Lord Wakefield became a life member in 1936. To Mr. Hussey, also a life member, who joined the Society fifty years ago, a special tribute is due for his long-continued, accurate and painstaking work in connection with Kent Records. This Report had reached an advanced state of preparation when, early in March 1941, the Council learned of the death of Mr. Walter Ruck, the Hon. Librarian of the Society for some fourteen years. Mr. Ruck avoided the limelight, but worked quietly and unobtrusively in arranging and cataloguing the Society's books, prints, photographs and other possessions, whilst his wide knowledge of the contents of the Library was always at the disposal of members seeking information. The death of Mr. Ruck and the temporary loss of the services of the Society's Curator, Mr. C. E. Fisher, who is serving in the Royal Navy, necessarily limit the facilities that can at present be given to callers at the Society's room at Maidstone Museum. Mr. A. J. Golding, the Librarian and Curator of the Museum, has, however, very generously offered to attend to pressing matters, as far as practicable, until the war is over, an offer which the Council have gratefully accepted. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING. The Annual General Meeting was held on May 23rd, at Maidstone Museum, by courtesy of the Museum Committee. The President was in the chair, and about thirty members attended the business meeting. After the Minutes had been confirmed the Chairman made a comprehensive review of the Annual Report. He spoke with regret of the deaths of Lord Brabourne, Dr. Charles Cotton and Mr. H. W. Plumptre. He drew attention to the decline in membership and urged all present to make an effort to obtain new members. He informed the meeting of the transfer to the custody of the Kent County Council at Maidstone of the Deeds, Court Rolls, and other documents held by the Records Branch at Canterbury. He explamed the position of the General Index, referred to the report on the excavations on Oldbury Hill, and announced that it was proposed to postpone further consideration of the question of the disposal of the gold armillw until REPORT, 1940. xxxvii after the close of the war. He informed members of the re-hanging of the Twisden portraits in Bradbourne House after the completion of alterations, and of the arrangements in progress for enabling them to see the pictures when circumstances allow. He added that a descriptive catalogue of the portraits was in preparation for pubhcation at an opportune time in Archcvologia Cantiana. After Mr. Stokes had dealt with questions arising in the Accounts, the Report and Accounts were unanimously adopted. Sir Gerald Woods Wollaston, Rev. Canon R. U. Potts, Rev. Canon S. W. Wheatley, Dr. Gordon Ward and Mr. H. R. Pratt Boorman were re-elected members of the Council. The vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Cotton was filled by the election of the Rev. Canon J. M. C. Crum. The Hon. Auditors were heartily thanked for their services and re-elected. The admission of two new members was ratified. Votes of thanks to the Corporation of Maidstone for granting facilities for the meeting, to Mr. Richard Cooke for providing tea, and to the officers of the Society for their services, ended the morning meeting. Some forty members and their friends assembled after lunch. Dr. Gordon Ward gave an address on Horse-shoes from the Iron Age to the Present Day, illustrated by an exhibit in an adjoining room, and Mr. Elliston Erwood followed with a lantern lecture on Recent Discoveries at Lesnes Abbey, Erith. Both lecturers showed a complete mastery of their respective subjects and their addresses were greatly enjoyed. They received the hearty thanks of the meeting. CotrNOXL. The Council met only once during the year, namely in April, when the business for the Annual General Meeting was considered and passed and other current matters were disposed of. LIBRARY AND COLLECTION. Gifts to the Library and Collection include the Place Names of Nottinghamshire (Eng. P.N. Society, Vol. XVII), donor, Mr. B. W. Swithinbank ; a paper by Captain J. B. Ward Perkins, F.S.A., on Two early Linch-pins, from King's Langley, Herts, and from Tiddington, Stratford-on-Avon (given by the Author); a paper on The Medieval Painted Glass of Teynham, by Mr. C. R. Councer (given by the Author); a parcel of over fifty deeds relating toxxxviii REPORT, 1940. properties in Kent, donor, Sir Thomas C. Colyer Fergusson, Bart.; a further gift by Mr. N. E. Toke of photographic Heraldic Rubbings of Ledger Stones ; a number of Brass rubbings from Kent churches, donor, Miss E. A. Powell; three note-books of the late Canon Scott Robertson, donor, Canon S. W. Wheatley ; and a photograph of the remains of the Roman villa at Darenth, donor, Mr. James Barber. Members will be interested to learn that the late Hon. Librarian, Mr. Walter Ruck, had completed the compilation of an index to some 1,200 prints, engravings and sketches of places of interest in the County in the possession of the Society. ACCOUNTS. The Accounts show an excess of expenditure over income of £281 odd. This result, at first sight startling, is due to the inclusion among the payments of the cost of printing the General Index to Volumes XX to XLV of Archceologia Cantiana, a non-recurrent charge for which provision had largely been made by accumulated surpluses of past years. Apart from the cost of the Index, the expenditure has been made to conform to the available income by limiting the size of the annual volume, as mentioned in the next following paragraph. Arrears of subscriptions are abnormally high, as will be seen from the Accounts. AROHJLOLOGIA CANTIANA. Volume LIII of Archa-ologia Cantiana was issued recently. Owing to the increased cost of paper and printing and the need to conserve the Society's resources, it is less bulky than usual. The Council aim at the production of an annual volume even under the stress of present conditions and they hope that members will approve this policy. The General Index to Volumes XX to XLV has been issued to all members who paid the subscription for 1939 and also expressed a wish to have a copy. Its production was attended with many obstacles and much unavoidable delay, and the Council do not doubt that its appearance was generally appreciated. Donations to the Illustrations Fund totalled £2 3s. 6d., compared with £28 18s. lid. in 1939. Additional contributions to this useful fund will be welcomed. RECORDS BRANCH. The activities of the Records Branch have been curtailed by war conditions. The second part of Kent Feet of Fines was, REPORT, 1940. xxxix however, issued during the year. As announced at the Annual General Meeting, the Deeds, Court Rolls and other documents collected by the Branch have been transferred from Canterbury to the permanent custody of the Kent County Council at the Sessions House, Maidstone, where they may be seen on application. PLACE NAMES. There is no progress to be reported for 1940. EXCURSIONS. No excursions were held during the year. REPORTS OE LOCAL SECRETARIES. Mr. F. C. Elliston Erwood has transmitted the following combined Report by himself as Local Secretary for Blackheath and the Secretary of the Woolwich Antiquarian Society : "Activity during the past twelve months has been practically at a standstill. No meetings have been possible and no publications have been issued, though the third part of the History of Plumstead is ready for printing when circumstances permit. No discoveries of any importance have been notified. " The work by the London County Council at Lesnes Abbey, Erith, under the supervision of the Local Secretary for Blackheath, was continued, though slowly, during the year, but no fresh excavation was attempted; all available labour being devoted to preserving and consolidating details already uncovered and to laying out the site. This work has now stopped and will not be resumed till after the termination of hostilities, but the exposed walls are now well able to withstand the rigours of winter. The whole of the Church, the Cloister, the Refectory and the Western Ranges are now visible. " The Eastern Range, comprising the Chapter House, Dormitory, Rere-Dorter, and the Infirmary must thus await examination. It is possible that the Gatehouse (or one of them) has been revealed by trenches dug by Air Force personnel occupying part of the site, but this, too, must await future confirmation. On Sunday afternoons throughout the summer the Local Secretary gave short lecture-tours of the remains to large audiences, and the interest aroused will, it is hoped, remain and keep alive some enthusiasm for antiquities after the war." Mrs. Selby, in drawing attention to the finding, early in 1940, of a crock of gold nobles, half-nobles, and quarter-nobles, 120 xl REPORT, 1940. coins in all, at Chantry Cottages, Bredgar, which was reported in the London and local papers, points out that the cottages were the cells occupied by the Chaplains of Bredgar Chantry and College (see Kent Records, Vol. XII; Kent Chantries, by Arthur Hussey, Part I, 21). She also mentioned the discovery of a large and deep hole at Fox Hill, Bapchild, which is supposed to be a dene hole, but is not known to have been the subject of expert examination. It is understood that the hole was to be filled up. In reporting damage to Lynsted Church by enemy action, Mrs. Selby states that the monuments are practically uninjured, but closer examination is to be made after the roof has been restored. An appeal for £1,000 has been made and donations will be welcomed. The Hon. Treasurer is Mrs. Belinda Dixon, Cambridge, Teynham, Kent. Mr. A. J. Philip, on behalf of the Gravesend Society, reports that in a field near Marling's Cross, in Gravesend borough, two or three holes have appeared. A preliminary examination has not definitely established their use, and they present certain novel features which it is hoped to examine further as soon as local conditions allow. The Society has made a grant for superficial survey and the removal of fallen earth. Bombs dropped at Northfleet opened up some old workings but they were filled in and ploughed over before they could be properly examined. AFFILIATED SOCIETIES. Mrs. Gardiner has reported on the activities of the Canterbury Archseological Society: " The winter programme, 1939-40, included lectures on Bristol, Prehistoric Beasts, Sarre and the Wantsum Channel, Roman Canterbury, Prior Henry of Eastry, and William Somner. The Society is fortunate in having a group of younger archaeologists who have strengthened its enthusiasms, and among them, Mr. Webster, who, by spade and pen, is enlarging our knowledge of Roman times in Canterbury, and Mr. R. A. L. Smith, whose learned researches are casting a flood of light on the Economic History of the Priory. Mr. Urry's work on the Kentish aspect of Foxe's Book of Martyrs has been temporarily set aside for war-service. Mrs. Gardiner's lecture on the history of Cogan House (' Colon's Hospital'), which covers seven centuries, will, it is intended, be published when circumstances are more favourable. REPORT, 1940. xii " The Summer programme, 1940, promised equally well; but only two excursions had taken place when transport restrictions compelled its abandonment. The Society, however, visited Chillenden Chambers, under the Hon. Secretary's guidance, and the Walpole Collection under that of Miss Leaver (the curator). They also spent a delightful afternoon at Stodmarsh Church and Court, and inspected Elbridge House, a little known example of a fifteenth century farmhouse, connected with the Bigge family, contemporary owners of Cokin's house. " It is not yet the moment to assess war-damage on the ancient buildings of Canterbury. Groups of air-raid shelters occupy many well-known sites, the Butter Market, the vacant sites of St. Mary Bredman, and All Saints' Church, a corner of Holy Cross Churchyard, the City Ditch in Broad Street, and so forth, but these are only temporary intruders. " The Society has undertaken responsibility for a Photographic Survey of buildings architecturally interesting, and of various periods. This is well advanced and will, it is hoped, be supplemented by drawings of detail made by students of the School of Art under the guidance of the Principal and members of his staff. The aim of the Survey is to make a permanent record of Canterbury during the World War. The subjects chosen are principally buildings less well known than the Cathedral and certam historic houses and inns ; possessing a value of their own, but seldom or never reproduced. The Survey is sponsored by the Committee of the Royal Museum, and it is hoped eventually to place the records on exhibition. " The death of an octogenarian member, Mrs. Brewster, must be recorded. She had spent her whole life in the city and her lively memories of its past gave delight to the Society at a ' Symposium ' described in their last report. She rarely missed a meeting, summer or winter, and she was bidden farewell with deep regret." Mrs. Martin Hardie has forwarded the Report of the Tonbridge Antiquarian Society for the year 1939 (issued in 1940), showing sustained interest in the excursions, and in a lecture by Mr. Martin Hardie. These activities took place before the outbreak of war. GENERAL. The Council invite the sympathetic attention of members of the Society to a leaflet circulated recently by the Central Council for the Care of Churches, asking for help in making detailed xlii REPORT, 1940. photbgraphic records of all churches, which are liable to suffer damage by enemy action. Although the request of the Central Council relates only to churches, records (whether photographs or plans, sections, sketches and the like) of other historic buildings and ancient monuments, if made now and preserved for future reference, might also prove of great interest and permanent value. Under the chairmanship of the Master of the Rolls and with the help and approval of the Ministry of Works and Buildings, the Council of the National Buildings Record (66 Portland Place, London, W.l) is co-ordinating the work of recording buildings of historic and architectural interest throughout the country. Before the war a committee of the Kent Archseological Society was exploring the kindred question of scheduling the ancient buildings and sites of antiquities in Kent, but the outbreak of hostilities has prevented substantial progress from being made. The question has now assumed more importance and greater urgency, and apart from the photographic records mentioned in the preceding paragraph, members of the Society are urged to send as soon as possible, to the Hon. General Secretary (Sir Edward Harrison) lists of all buildings of historic and architectural interest in their own localities, with brief descriptions of the properties and their precise situations ; and distinguishing any that have suffered from damage by enemy action. The information so collected will be passed on to the Council of the National Buildings Record. An Appeal by the Master of the Rolls, as President of the British Records Association, has recently been addressed to Solicitors asking for their help in securing the preservation of records of historical interest when clearances of papers from their offices are contemplated. Experts such as members of County Archseological Societies are being asked to place their services, gratuitously, at the disposal of solicitors, as opportunity offers, in order to undertake the task of selection. Captain H. W. Knocker, F.S.A., of Rysted House, Westerham, Kent, a member of the Council of the Kent Archseological Society, and an Hon. Receiver of Records for Kent, is organizing the work in the County, and any competent members of the Society, who are willing to visit, by arrangement, solicitors' offices in the vicinity of their homes or offices for the purpose of selection of papers are invited to put themselves into communication with him. REPORT, 1940. xliii The Society of Antiquaries are preparing a new edition of Papworth's Ordinary of Arms and appeal to members of archseological societies and others to help by drawing up schedules of heraldic material in or relating to their own districts, and by organizing local expert knowledge. The main types of material to be borne in mind are (i) Arms on tombs and buildings ; (ii) Arms on seals; (iii) Heraldic manuscripts and special collections in public or private hands ; (iv) Existing catalogues or accounts of any of the above. Members of the Kent ArchsBological Society who are able and willing to help should communicate in the first place with Sir Edward Harrison. As in previous years the attention of members is particularly invited to the notices printed on the back of the title-page of " Archseologia Cantiana." They show when and to whom subscriptions should be paid and contain other information designed to facilitate business and promote the general convenience. The prompt payment of subscriptions and the introduction of new members will be especially appreciated at the present time. By Order of the Council, EDWARD HARRISON, Hon. Gen. Secretary. April 1941. Important. The Hon. Gen. Secretary asks for the present addresses of: John Archibald, G. F. Tracy Beale, John A. Chamberlain, James Cook, Miss N. M. Daniel, Maurice Fry, Sir Hugh N. Jackson, Miss D. G. Martin, Captain J. S. Masterman, Miss I. E. S. Watts. Will members please help. ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR 1940. xliv KENT ARCHAEOLOGICAL 3@r.
