KAS Groups
Categories
Archaeology Research Group
The KAS has been directly involved in conducting fieldwork in Kent since 1860. Future fieldwork undertaken by the Society will be overseen by the Archaeology Research Group (formerly the KAS Fieldwork Committee).
Historic Buildings Group
The group takes an interest in standing buildings from dwellings to cathedrals, arranging events and conferences, sharing resources, and encouraging publication. The group incorporates the areas of interest of the former Churches Committee.
Kent Defence Research Group
Researches the county’s defences of all types and periods through the study of records, maps, aerial photographs, ground investigation and by other means.
Place Names Research Group
The study of place names, or toponymy, includes an interest in their origins, meanings, usage and types. The group arranges events and conferences, shares resources and encourages publication.
Maritime Kent Special Interest Group
The Maritime Kent Special Interest Group has been set up as a focal point to support and to disseminate research and information relating to Kent’s rich maritime heritage.
