All Saints Church, Wouldham, Kent - its history and architecture
Heritage Open Day: A 50-minute illustrated talk on the history and architecture of this almost 1,000 year old church. All Saints Church in Wouldham, Kent has lain below the North Downs, beside the River Medway, for almost 1,000 years. Hear this 50-minute fully illustrated talk, previously very well-received, and learn about the Saxon building of 1058, its history and its architecture. Learn about its anti-witch measures; its links to the Battle of Trafalgar; the unscrupulous lad of the parish who became Sheriff of Kent but who stole land from the peasants; its fifty year long argument over fishing rights. and how it gained from the local cement industry.
