What can you do in Kent in June?

Well as far away as Kent is from Chorlton I have to confess I am tempted by the one day conference the history of Canterbury, Dover, Faversham, Folkestone, Gillingham, Grange, Hythe and Sevenoaks.

From Roman remains, to a snap shot of Kentish life in 1641, interspersed by a look at a mid 19th century boom town.

So if you fancy all the new research into the history of some Kent towns then this one-day conference could be just what you want.  It is organized by the Kent Archaeological Society, the Historical Association and the CCCU (Canterbury Christ Church University) Centre for Public and Regional History

 ‘New Developments in Kentish Urban Studies’ will be held at Old Sessions House, Canterbury Christ Church
University, Canterbury on Saturday June 29 (9.30 – 16.45, tickets £12).
