  Opportunity to join the KAS Publications Committee – we are looking for new members and would be delighted to hear from anyone who would like to get involved.

  We are keen to hear from people who have experience researching, writing and publishing on Kent’s history or if you feel you have other experience that would benefit the Committee’s activities. We usually meet twice a year and among our recent activities was the publication of the Maritime Kent through the Ages essay collection, and the second conference on this topic.

  If you are interested, please send your cv to: sheila.sweetinburgh@ kentarchaeology.org.uk, or if you would like more details, please use the same email address.

  ARcHAEOLOGIcA cANTIANA

  My late father had an almost complete collection of Archaelogia Cantiana volumes. The following cross-references what we have with the list of volumes on the KAS website, and I think we are only missing three volumes between

  1858 and 2016 (Volumes 7, 24 & 88). They are all in reasonable condition.

  I would be happy to part with them for £100 and would be able to deliver to addresses in north Kent, Sussex or Surrey. If they needed to go further afield, they would be available to collect from Chislehurst.
