Victor Smith has very kindly supplied scans of a number of reports, now made available on thee Society website.

Chris Harman of the Capel Battery Preservation Group provides an update on a project to restore the remnants of the structures at Capel on the north of the Weald.

Recently published findings from the excavations of the Kent Archaeological Rescue Unit in Gravesend in 1989 draw attention to the discovery of a riverside Romano-British settlement over an area of at least 5 acres, a road extending inland, and a possible Roman military site.

Clive Holden’s report is the culmination of his two years research into the military history of Maidstone in the Second World War and the plans for its defence.

Keith Gulvin provides an update on the restoration of Slough Fort, Allhallows.

Victor Smith highlights an iron key thought to have been used by Lt. Col. Charles G. Gordon (later General of Khartoum fame) during his stay at New Tavern Fort in Gravesend from 1865-71 when acting as Commanding Royal Engineer for the Thames District.

With a study of Kent’s defences during the Great War submitted to the editor of Archaeologia Cantiana for publication and an historical overview of the 20th century defences of Thanet near completion, two research and publication projects by Victor Smith are scheduled to begin in 2016.
