Land Bought
The Trust is now the official owner of the land along the Clare Road embankment. Completion of the purchase of the land has taken place. Ownership of the land will enable the Trust to proceed with the implementation of the planning permission for a sustainable transport route towards Whitstable Harbour. The land has a length of approximately 400 metres and an area of 2.0055 hectacres.
Litter Clear up
A litter pick up and clear up of our newly purchased land has taken place on Thursday 21st March. CCC provided clearance of the debris collected through SERCO. A large amount of rubbish was collected by our volunteers, and the land looks a lot more tidy now. Many thanks to the volunteers for the hard and some times unpleasant work they undertook on our behalf.
Heritage Open Days
The Trust will participate in Heritage Open Days this September. An organised walk from the Harbour to South Street is anticipated.
Tunnel visit
The Trust has organised a visit to the southern portal of the Tyler Hill Tunnel with kind permission of the land owner, Archbishops School and Kent Bat Group. There are still places available to go in and see the tunnel which despite it’s age is in excellent condition. There is a charge of £5.00 per member for the visit. The visit will take place on Saturday 18th May starting at 10.30. Please contact John Burden on 01227 769566 to participate.
