Twisted Ovate Palaeolithic Handaxes and a recent surface find in Kent
Introducing the KAS Brand & Communications Manager, Nicky Hammond
The Kent Archaeological Place-Names Group presents a walk around the Meopham Anglo-Saxon Charter boundary
Mark Bateson, Place-Names Group Chair
The KAS Place-Names Group plan a guided walk following a possible route of the Meopham Anglo-Saxon charter boundary, for KAS members, on Saturday 14 May. Group member John Death, who has made a detailed study of the boundary, will lead the walk. While places are free, they are very limited due to the logistics and safety risks of leading a large group of people around the countryside and along some public roads.
Walk date: Saturday 14th May
Time: 1.00 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. approx
Start: Meopham Railway Station (car parking available, but there is a charge)
Finish: Meopham Railway Station
Distance: 7.7 km or a little under 5 miles
Grade: easy, though with some steep hills in places, a mixture of (mostly) minor roads and public footpaths through woods and open countryside
Cost: FREE to KAS members
Further details: we hope to break the walk for a brief rest and refreshment at the Cock Inn, Henley Street, Luddesdown

It is hoped to end the walk with a visit to Meopham church to climb the tower and survey parts of the Meopham estate. N.B. (a) the tower visit is still to be confirmed; (b) the tower staircase is steep and not recommended for those with restricted mobility
