Opis

Was there a Golden Age when Newenden had sixteen inns? What is Castle Toll and why does the church look so peculiar? In eight investigative essays, Ake Nilson goes in search of answers to these and other questions concerning the early history of Newenden, a tiny village on the border of Kent and Sussex in south-east England. For a small place, Newenden turns out to have a lot of history, which just might include the possible first mention of cricket, a hunting lodge owned by King Edward I, a lost fortress of King Alfred's, as well as its very own gallows. The proceeds from the sale of this publication go directly to the Friends of Saint Peter's Church, Newenden, a secular charity for the maintenance and preservation of the parish church as a historic monument and focal point of the village. The Friends is a registered charity, no. 1098260."
