PROTECTION OF ANCIENT MONUMENTS.
Mr. R. F. Jessup (Autumn Cottage, Ditton, Maidstone) has been appointed
Chief Correspondent for Kent to the Inspectorate of Ancient Monuments in
succession to the late Mr. Richard Cooke. Mr. Jessup would be pleased
at any time to receive information from members regarding monuments
which appear to be worthy of preservation ; it should be noted, however,
that buildings in ecclesiastical use and buildings occupied by other
than a caretaker cannot in general be scheduled for preservation under
the Ancient Monuments Acts.
GENERAL.
The attention of members is again invited to the appeals for their
co-operation in making and preserving records of churches and buildings
of historic and architectural interest, as well as in the preservation
of documentary records of |
|
historical interest. These appeals were made
in the Council’s Report for 1940, which will be found bound up with
the recently issued volume of Archaeologia Cantiana. The Council
take this opportunity of thanking members who have already responded in
one way or another to such appeals.
Once again attention is directed to the notices printed on the back of
the title-page of "Archaeologia Cantiana" indicating when and
to whom subscriptions should be paid and containing other information
designed to facilitate business. At the present time there is a special
need for the introduction of new members and it is earnestly hoped that
activity in this direction during the current year may be sufficient to
keep the membership at least up to its present level.
By Order of the Council,
EDWARD HARRISON,
9th April 1942.

Capt. A. Stokes, and Mrs. H. L. Tatham.
