Imagery relating to a previous story that I created (featuring a mother innocently baking a strawberry cake for her young daughter; however she is oblivious to the fact that her daughter has been in a fatal car accident). I wanted to contrast the two juxtaposing elements of a content mother and injured daughter whilst also linking the two, e.g. runny red ink used to symbolize both juice from the strawberries, but also the fluidity of blood. I used strawberries as they are surprisingly fragile and delicate, much like the young girl in the story. Additionally, I wanted to experiment with the monoprinting technique as I felt the paint reflected the uneven, bumpy surface of strawberries.

The Fay Thomas Collection includes family archives relating to the Thomas family. Moses Thomas (1825-1878) was a significant figure in the history of the area now known as the City of Whittlesea, Victoria, Australia. Thomas and Ann and their family lived at "Mayfield", Mernda, Victoria.
Miss Lily Thomas (1871-1946), Thomas and Ann’s fourth daughter lived there all her life. She collected postcards which her family and friends sent her on a very regular basis. It was an easy and enjoyable way to keep in touch. Production of postcards blossomed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lily’s collection encompasses the so-called Golden Age (1890-1915) with many postmarked 1906-1907. Some were sent to other members of the family.
The collection document the natural landscape as well as the built environment—buildings, gardens, parks, and tourist sites. Topographical Postcards showing street scenes and general views from Australian and international locations, some of which are artistic views. Popular postcard manufacturers such as Tuck’s Postcards are included in the collection.
Decorative cards, many embellished with floral motives (as a nod to the receiver Lily?) and embossing. Greeting cards are common for Christmas, New Year, Easter and of course birthdays.
Regular senders can be identified from Kyneton and the Great Ocean Road area, Victoria and there is a siginifant collection from Scotland (but not sent from there).

I have no idea how many ride and stride / heritage weekends I have done, probably close to fifteen.
Once upon a time, it was churches and buildings around Dover and east Kent, then further and further away.
I had tried to plan better than this. I made a list a couple of weeks ago, then I thought of the twenty or so churches on the map of the first volume of Kent churches by John, and I saw that starting at Dartford, I could do a full day going from one church to another, and ticking off maybe 15 churches.
What I failed to take into account was there was no scale on John's map, and so the distances might not be that accurate. This is important, as one was near to the Sussex of Surrey border, that's Cudham that is, and would involve an hour's drive there and back, through the outer sprawl of south east London, and it's traffic. That took over an hour out of the day, and then there was the unexpected road closures that meant a five minute drive between churches was thirty, and down meandering six-foot-sixers, up and down downs, into wooded valleys.
I could go on.
And will.
Being Saturday, and tat I had missed a session on Thursday, we had to go to the gym, but going to Tesco afterwards was a squeeze with the drive to Dartford, so as we were both awake at five, we went to Tesco before phys instead.
Tesco is full of people stacking shelves, and clearing up after the shelves being filled: trollies and rubbish everywhere. Aisles being blocked, and the early morning confused, of which we are in their number, trying to find stuff weeks after the store was refurbished.
Of course they could change the layout on a weekly basis, I don't think we would notice.
Then to the gym, do a 30 minute or so session, then back home for breakfast, put the shopping away and have a shower.
Out of the house at quarter to nine, up the Alkham Valley and onto the M20, up to the top where it joins the M25, then into outer Dartford, skippung the main church, and settling on Wilmington for the first visit.
This had the honour of being the 400th church, give or take, of the project.
St Michael and All Angels sits in leafy suburbia, just off the main road, down a residential street wide enough to be considered something close to a motorway in Norfolk.
Two fine listed memorials in the churchyard, and once inside I am greeted by two wardens, who are thrilled i have visited and very eager to hear about the project.
We talk for a while, already the timetable was slipping. This always happens.
It has recently been reordered, and had a screen where the rood screen used to be. Could be a modern version depending on what film was being screened I suppose.
A church not to please the trationalists, but warm, welcoming, and full of colour. And the warmest of welcomes.
My route to Horton Kirby took me through more urban sprawl. With terraced houses and industrial units along the main road. And parked cars.
But once under the railway bridge, it was a sharp left and into the countryside. After a right turn, on the lane into the village, and the church on the right, and I found parking beside a hedge, with just about enough room for traffic to get past.
St Mary suffered a tower and nave collapse, so a brick central tower replaced the ruin. It rises like the alien out of John Hurt's chest, from the roofs of the nave and chancel.
I was warmly greeted again, and the tower's history explained.
Inside the arches are very high indeed, out of scale with the rest of the church, but from the nave, the chancel and altar can be seen.
There is a fine window in the west wall to celebrate one of Queen Elizabeth's coronation anniversaries. It is modern and full of colour, and the wardens liked it very much.
And can confirm the church was very clean indeed.
Farningham was a ten minute drive, through what should have been fine woodland. But the road was lined with what can only be described an strata of fly-tipped rubbish, which stretched for a good couple of miles.
Such fly-tipping must have been going on for years, and no one, not even the local council seems to have done anything about it.
That being said, Farningham is a five village, just a few hundred yards to the west of the M20, though I heard no traffic.
The village has a narrow high street climbing steeply up the valley of the River Darent, but on the other side there are mansions, with high gates and warning signs.
Beside the fairly recent bridge, is the balustrade of a much older pack horse bridge, just that, no roadway memains.
It is home to one of only two seven sacrament fonts outside of Norfolk and Suffolk. And it is a testament to the information I received from John and Simon that I recognised it as such.
There is an unusual wooden grave marker beside the path to the porch.
Inside, the church is fine enough, though it is that font that takes the eye, and rightly so.
Wilmington seems affluent, even in a fairly well to do county, though the large pub didn't seem to be doing much business, but then it was only just after midday.
But I had appointments with up to twelve more churches, so no time to waste.
Back to the car.
A few weeks ago, at the height of the long hot summer, I went with friends to Lullingstone Park to try to snap the Dark Green Fritillaries, only for us to draw a blank. And take so long in doing so, we ran out of time to go to the church, was isn't a part of the park.
Any more.
Nor it is part of the English Heritage site of the Roman Villa, which contains the oldest Christian symbols in the British Isles.
Nor it it part of the Lavender Farm, but it part of Lullingstone Castle.
For each part, there is a different entrance, but at least from Farningham it is up along the narrow High Street, a sharp right along the top of the valley, then sharp right under the railway viaduct, thus avoiding the old pack bridge and/or ford in Eynsford.
Instead, down the dead end lane to the castle, and park on the wide grass verges, with the Tudor brick gatehouse to the west.
The church is still consecrated, so though in the castle grounds, you don't have to pay to visit.
I talked to the lady in the ticket booth, and she let me in. Walked over the grass to the white later porch, and inside.
A grand estate chapel, with several effigy tombs, but all in good condition, 17th century plater and corbel, with a rood screen, but one too late to be used as one, with the flared top added in the 19th century.
A fine church, and a visit enlivened by the arrival of a couple with their young children, down for the day from London. They were no trouble.
I think I recorded it all, so a brisk walk back to the car, and set the sat nav for the next church: Cudham.
Had I known how far Cudham was away, I would have skipped it. But as it was, I set the sat nav, and I drove off, back up the lane and back to Farningham.
The area at the top of the M26 I know well, and where it joins the M25. Which I did for one junction, then off at the next exit, and into the south London suburbs.
Round roundabout after roundabout, through housing estates and rows of shops. I mean it looked affluent enough, but all this was taking time.
Then down endless wooded lanes, sharp bends and steep hills up and down.
The church sits back from a busy, steep junction. I parked near the gate, as there was no other parking, with the nearby houses having clear no parking signs.
There was no one else there, so I went in, got my shots, and left a donation before walking quickly back to the car.
The afternoon was getting on, and I was getting tired.
But onwards, and back the way I had came. Back through the endless houses, back onto the M25, and back to Brands Hatch, thankfully here was no racing on, so the roads were very quiet.
There are several parishes in Kent with the same names: there are four Boughtons at least, and even two Paddlesworths. So, it should be no surprise to find there are two named Ash as well.
This Ash is at the end of a dead end lane, that peters out to a track, that the old gentleman inside the church told me will on one side have a solar farm, and on the other 700 new houses.
He was reading the Torygraph, which these days is never a good sign, as it is no longer a paper of record.
I go round getting my shots, but I was getting jaded.
Next up as Stansted.
Nestled in the fold of the downs, its less a village and more of a hamlet.
The church, St Mary, bears a strong resemblance to Hastingleigh, but after walking through the churchyard, past the ancient font outside, I find the door locked, and the parish playing no part, apparently, in ride and stride.
This made my mood darker.
Just up the hill, however, I pass another church, unexpectedly.
A group of people were taking either side of the churchyard wall, one old gaffer looking like Phil from Timeteam.
I park, and pass the time of day with the watchers, who are happy enough to have me visit and take photographs.
St Peter, John describes as a farmyard church, which it still is. Simple and rustic, which the centuries have mostly passed by, leaving a fine east window behind the altar.
I take my shots, pass the time of day once again, and am off, to what would turn out to be the final church of the day.
And so to Luddesdowne.
I used postcodes to find churches, and for the most part these work, as the towers can usually be seen.
But not here.
But the wardens had put out signs and arrows pointing to the church, so instead of heading straight on at the little used junction, I turned up the dead end, and there was the church, behind the trees.
Come in and see the wall paintings, the sign said. Who could turn down such an offer.
Frinsted near to Hucking has Victorian stencils, so inside I was to see these done on a grand scale, and mostly in good condition.
I disturbed to two wardens, who were delighted to have a visitor, even though I was neither a rider or strider.
Tea? Cake?
I accept squash.
And we talk long. About the project, and the churches I had seen and the wonderful people I had also met during the visits.
In time, I was shown in, and the scene dazzled.
As a whole it is wonderful, but the details are equally stunning too.
I take shots, but I am done.
I am sure I did a good job. I go back to the vestry, accept another squash and declare that my day is done, I was going home.
They wished me a safe journey, and I returned to the car, programmed home in the sat nav, then turned the radio on, as it was ten past three, and the football was on.
At Middlesborough, there had already been three goals: Norwich first, then two for Boro. Who scored a third as I drove back along the A2 to Faversham, then to Canterbury.
Once home at four, Jools had made me a brew, and Norwich pulled two goals back, so 3-3.
Sadly, Boro scored a winner in injury time.
So, bah!
We had defrosted ragu, pasta for dinner. Then the last slices of the coffee and walnut case Jools had made.
Football on the tellybox, then the highlights of the cycling.
The end of a long, but brilliant day.
Now for bed.

This is not a private chapel, and may be visited at all times, even though you walk across the private lawn of Lullingstone Castle to reach it. From the south the eighteenth-century alterations made to the two-cell Norman may be clearly seen. The walls were raised to accommodate an elaborate plaster ceiling, and a south porch was added. Yet these were not the first alterations to have taken place: in the sixteenth century a north chapel was added to the chancel to take the tomb of Sir John Peche (d. 1522) which lies under an arch between chancel and chapel. Sir John was also responsible for building the rood screen, which contains carvings of peach stones as a rebus (or pun) on his name. This screen was embellished in the eighteenth century when the wooden balustrade was added to the top. There are further monuments of note; on the south side of the chancel is the large monument to Sir Percyvall Hart (d. 1581) whilst in the north chapel is the splendid chest tomb of Sir George Hart (d. 1587) in complete contrast to the Gothick wall panel opposite commemorating his descendant Percyvall Hart (d. 1738). It is good to know that the Hart Dyke family connection with the church continues, for here true continuity of social history may be studied as in no other Kent church.

LULLINGSTONE.
ADJOINING to Eynsford Southward lies Lullingstone, called in the Textus Roffensis, Lullingeston, and in Domesday, Lolingestone.
[Page 540]
This parish is but small, it has no village, there being but two houses in it besides Lullingstone-house. Nearly the whole of it is the property of Sir John Dyke; this seat stands in the valley at the eastern boundary of the park, on the western bank of the river Darnent, a situation too low and damp to be either pleasant or healthy; almost adjoining to it on the north side is the church, hence the chalk hills immediately rise, both to the east and west, where, though more barren, it yet becomes more healthy. Through this park, close by the antient gateway to Lullingstone-house, is a public and acknowledged road leading from Eynsford to Shoreham.
THIS PLACE, at the time of taking the survey of Domesday, was part of the vast estate of Odo, bishop of Baieux, half-brother to William the Conqueror; and it is accordingly thus described in it, under the general title of that prelate's lands.
Godfrey de Ros holds of the bishop (of Baieux) Lolingestone. It was taxed at 1 suling. The arable land is In demesne there is 1 carucate, and 4 villeins, with 1 cottager, having 2 carucates. There are 7 servants and 6 acres of pasture; wood for the pannage of 20 hogs. When he received it, it was worth 60 shillings, now 100 shillings. The king has in his hand what is worth 10 shillings. Brixi Cilt held it of king Edwards the Confessor.
Malgerius holds of the bishop (of Baieux) Lolingestone. It was taxed at half a suling. The arable land is. In demesne there is 1 carucate, and 3 villeins, with 1 borderer, having 1 carucate. There are 5 acres of meadow.
And a little afterwards:
Osbern Peyforer holds Lolingestone of the bishop (of Baieux) for half a suling. The arable land is. In demesne there is 1 carucate, and 3 villeins, with 1 borderer, and 1 servant, having 1 carucate. There are 5 acres of meadow, wood for the pannage of 5 hogs, [Page 541] and 1 mill of 15 shillings, and 150 eels. The king has a wood of a late gift of the bishop, and it is worth 3 shillings. The whole manor was worth 60 shillings, now 77 shillings. Sewart Sot held it of king Edward the Confessor, and could turn himself over with his land whenever he would.
The former of these estates being thus held by the family of Ros, acquired from them the name of the manor of Lullingstone Ros, as the latter did from being owned by that of Peyforer, the name of Lullingstone Peyforer. In the beginning of the reign of king Edward I. they were both in the possession of the family of Rokesle. Gregory de Rokesle held them in the 7th year of king Edward 1. being then lord-mayor of London; and that year he obtained a grant to himself and his heirs of free-warren for his lands in Lullingstone. (fn. 1) In the 20th year of king Edward III. his grandson, John de Rokesle, rector of the church of Chelsfield, paid aid for it as one knight's fee, viz. the manors of Lullingstone Rosse, Fokysparsrere, and Cokerhurst, (fn. 2) which William de Rokesle before held in Lullingstone of Margery de Rivers. John de Rokesle died in 1361, and lies buried in this church. His arms, as on his grave-stone, were, A cross, in the dexter quarter a rook. His seoffees conveyed all his estates in this parish to Sir John Peche, descended from Gilbert de Peche, who was summoned to parliament in the 13th year of king Edward II. (fn. 3) He had two sons, Sir William Peche and Sir Robert Peche, who both accompanied king Edward I. in his victorious expedition into Scotland, in the 28th year of his reign, and assisted at the siege of Carlaverock in that kingdom, for which service they, with their company, received the honour of knighthood.
[Page 542]
Sir John Peche, the same year that he bought Lullingstone, obtained a charter of free-warren to his lands here, which was the next year again confirmed to him. (fn. 4) He died in the 4th year of king Richard II. possessed of Lullingstone, when it was also found, by inquisition, that he was then possessed jointly with Mary his wife, of a messuage, with divers lands, woods, and rents of assize, in Lullingstone and Peyfrere, of the feoffment of John Constantyn, Edmund de Cleye, and Richard Peche, which premises were held of the king as of the honor of Ledes, as the fourth part of one knight's fee, by the service of one pair of gilt spurs, of the price of six-pence. (fn. 5) He was succeeded in his estates here by his son, Sir William Peche, whose widow, the lady Joan, died possessed of them in the 11th year of king Henry IV. and lies buried in St. Mary Woolnoth church, in London. (fn. 6) Their son was Sir John Peche, sheriff of Kent, anno 8 Henry VI. whose figure habited in his surcoat of arms, and kneeling on a cushion, with his hands joined in a praying posture, and his head uncovered, was formerly pictured in one of the windows of Ashford church. He left a son, Sir William Peche, sheriff of this county in the 2d and 3d years of king Edward IV. who at his death in 1487, was found to die possessed of the manor of Lullingstone Rosse, and Lullingstone, Payfrere, and Cokerhurst, with their appurtenances, which were held of the king as of his duchy of Lancaster. (fn. 7) He left a son, Sir John Peche, and a daughter Elizabeth, who married John Hart, esq.
Sir John Peche was a man of great reputation at that time, being created a knight banneret, and made lord deputy of Calais. He was sheriff in the 10th year of king Henry VII. in which year, when the lord Audley [Page 543] and the Cornish men, who had risen in support of Perkin Warbeck, would have collected provisions and men in this county, he with other gentry of it, opposed them, and obliged them to turn towards London; soon after which they were vanquished on Blackheath. During his life-time he paid five hundred pounds into the hands of the wardens and masters of the Grocers company in London, of which he was free, for the performing of certain almsdeeds, and works of piety for his soul's health, as will be further mentioned hereafter. He died possessed of Lullingstone manor, leaving his wife, the lady Elizabeth surviving to whom king Henry VIII. of his special favour, in his 31st year, granted an annuity of ten marcs during her life.
On his death without issue, Elizabeth, his sister, was found to be his heir; upon which her husband, John Hart, esq. of the Middle Temple, counsellor at law in her right became entitled to this estate.
This family of Hart was originally of Westmill, in Hertfordshire, where Stephen Hart resided in the reign of king Edward III. His son, Hanekin Hart, left a son William, who removed from Westmill, to Abbotsbury, and thence to Papworth, in Cambridgeshire; his son and heir, William Hart, returned into Hertfordshire. His descendant, William Hart, died in the 9th year of king Henry VII. leaving by Alice his wife, widow of Robert Sutton, of London, one son, John Hart, who was of the Middle Temple, and married Elizabeth, sister and heir of Sir John Peche, knight banneret, as above mentioned. He left, by Elizabeth his wife, who survived him, and afterwards married George Cobham, brother of the lord Cobham, and dying in 1543, lies buried in St. Mary Cray church, a son, Sir Percival Hart, who was chief sewer and knight harbinger to king Henry VIII. king Edward VI. queen Mary, and queen Elizabeth, whose lands were disgavelled by the act of the 31st of the for [Page 544] mer of those reigns. On his mother's death in 1543, he became possessed of this manor of Lullingstone; for at this time the two manors before-mentioned seem to have been accounted but as one; when he quitted his seat, afterwards called Barkhart, in Orpington, and removed hither to Lullingstone-house, where he kept his shrievalty for this county in the 37th year of king Henry VIII. He died in 1580, and lies buried in this church, having had by Frediswide, his wife, one of the sisters and coheirs of John, lord Bray, twelve children. Of whom Henry, the eldest son, married Cicely, daughter of Sir Martin Bowes, and died without issue; and Sir George, the second son, and at length heir to his father, on his brother's death, was of Lullingstone, and was sheriff of this county, anno 25th Elizabeth; by Elizabeth his wife, daughter of John Bowes, esq. of Elford, in Staffordshire, he left several children, and died in 1587. His eldest son, Sir Percival Hart, resided at Lullingstone-house, and was twice married; first, to Anne, daughter of Sir Roger Manwood, chief baron of the exchequer, by whom he had one son, William; his second wife was Jane, daughter of Sir Edward Stanhope, of Grimston, by whom he had Sir Henry Hart, K.B. who died in his father's lifetime, having married Elizabeth, daughter of Burdet, and widow of Sir Simon Norwich, by whom he left Percival Hart, and several other children.
William Hart, esq. the only son of Sir Percyval, by his first wife, succeeded his father in the possession of this place, and died in 1671. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Anthony Weldon, of Swanscombe, who died in 1677, and lies buried there, by whom he had no issue. Upon which this estate descended to Percyval Hart, esq. eldest son of Sir Henry Hart, eldest son of Sir Percyval Hart, by his second wife, as before-mentioned. He was afterwards knighted, and left by Anne his wife, one son, Percival Hart, esq. who was of Lullingstone, and was sheriff in 1707, and [Page 545] served in parliament for this county in the 9th and 12th years of queen Anne's reign. He died in 1738, and was buried, as were his several ancestors before-mentioned, in this church. This family of Hart bore for their arms, Per chevron azure and gules, three barts tripping or. Over the monument of Percyval Hart, esq. last-mentioned, are forty-four different shields of arms, which he quartered in his own and his wife's right. He left by Sarah his wife, youngest daughter of Edward Dixon, esq. of Hilden, an only daughter and heir, Anne, then married to her second husband, Sir Thomas Dyke, bart. of Horeham, in Sussex.
Sir Thomas Dyke was descended of a good family, who had been sometime seated in Suffex; of whom Thomas Dyke, second son of Sir Thomas Dyke, by Catharine his wife, one of the daughters of Sir John Bramstone, of Skreenes, in Essex, was created a baronet March 3, 1676, anno 29 king Charles II. He resided at Horeham, in Suffex, and served in parliament for that county in 1685, and for East Grinsted several times. He married Philadelphia, the eldest daughter and coheir of Thomas Nutt, of Selmiston, in Suffex, and died in 1706, having had by her Philadelphia, who married Lewis Stephens, D.D. Elizabeth married to John Cockman, M. D. and Thomas, who was his only surviving son, who married Anne, daughter and sole heir of Percyval Hart, as before-mentioned. The family of Dyke bear for their arms, Or, three cinquefoils sable.
He quitted his family seat at Horeham, and entirely resided at Lullingstone-house, which he first dignified with the name of Lullingstone-castle, by which name it has been called ever since. For as to Lullingstonecastle, the reader will find an account of it under the parish of Shoreham; it being evident, from all records and antient writings, that it was the same as is now known by the name of Shoreham-castle, the ruins of which appear near the river, at a small distance from the [Page 546] south gate of Lullingstone-park. Sir Thomas Dyke died in 1756, and lies buried here, having had by Anne his wife, one daughter, Philadelphia, married to William Lee, esq. of Totteridge, son of the lord chief justice Lee, and three sons; Thomas Hart, who died unmarried; John Dixon, the present baronet; and Percyval, who died in 1740, unmarried. He left his wife, lady Anne Dyke, surviving, who possessed this manor and seat during her life, and dying in 1763, lies buried in this church; on which Sir John Dixon Dyke, bart. her only surviving son, became entitled to them, by virtue of his father's will in tail male. He married, in 1756, Philadelphia Payne Horne, only daughter and heir of George Horne, esq. late of London, by whom he has three sons, Thomas, Percival, and George Hart; and two daughters, the eldest of whom was married in 1790, to Beaumont Hotham, esq. and the youngest, Harriot, in 1791, to Charles Milman, esq. now of Farningham.
Sir John Dixon Dyke now resides here, and has been for several years improving this seat, and the park and grounds about it.
Lambarde mentions a park at Lullingstone, in the reign of queen Elizabeth; (fn. 8) after which there seems to have been none used as such for many years. In the time of the late Mr. Percyval Hart, it was used as a warren for conies, and Sir Thomas Dyke restored it to its present state as a park again.
LULLINGSTANE was formerly a parish of itself, though it is now united to Lullingstone. It is situated at the north-east corner of Lullingstone-park, between that and Eynsford. This place was held in the reign of king Edward I. by Simon de Echingham, of Richard de Rokesle, as half a knight's fee; soon after which, it came into the possession of the family of Cobham, a younger branch of which owned it in the reign of king Edward III.
[Page 547]
Sir Reginald de Cobham paid his respective aid for this manor of Lullingstane, as half a knight's fee, in the 20th year of that reign, which Simon de Echingham before held here of Richard de Rokesle, and he of the king, as of his honor of Ledes. He died in the 35th year of the above reign, possessed of it at his death. (fn. 9) His son Reginald was lord of Sterboroughcastle, in Surry. (fn. 10)
His grandson, Sir Thomas Cobham, left a sole daughter and heir, Anne, who carried this estate in marriage to Sir Edward Borough. Their son and heir, Thomas, was summoned to parliament as lord Borough, anno 21 king Henry VIII. and left Thomas, his son and heir, who bequeathed it to his youngest son, Sir William Borough, and he in the beginning of queen Elizabeth's reign, conveyed it by sale to Percyval Hart, since which it has descended in the same way that Lullingstone manor has, to Sir John Dixon Dyke, bart. who is the present owner of it.
This parish was united to that of Lullingstone, by Richard, bishop of Rochester, in the year 1412, as will be more fully mentioned hereafter in the ecclesiastical account of it.
The church of Lullingstane, after its being united to Lullingstone, became neglected and fell to ruin. It stood in a field by the road side, on the west side leading from Eynsford to Lullingstone, a few rods from the gate, and about a quarter of a mile from the parkgate. The remains are obscured with briars and nettles; from the smallness of the building it should seem to be of Saxon architecture, and built with slints and Roman bricks, the west end being chiefly of the latter, several of which have been dug up near these ruins, and in digging a hole for the third post of the paling, from the park gate, part of a tesselated pavement was [Page 548] discovered, and Roman coins and instruments have at times been found near these ruins. (fn. 11)
THE PARISH OF LULLINGSTONE is within the Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction of the diocese of Rochester, and deanry of Dartford. The church is dedicated to St. Botolph. It consists of one isle and two chancels, having a low pointed steeple at the west end.
This church, to the credit of the patrons of it, who for a long succession of time have resided in the family seat almost adjoining to it, is remarkable for the neat and decent state in which it is kept. It is paved with white and black marble, the pews are regularly wainscoted, the windows adorned with coloured glass, and the cieling ornamented with stucco. The antient screen which separates the nave from the chancel, yet remains entire. It is of oak, and a most beautiful piece of gothic work, with a balustrade at top. The several monuments, which are fine, are in excellent order and preservation, insomuch, that it resembles a nobleman's costly chapel, more than a parochial country church, and affords an example worthy of the imitation of the patrons of other churches.
In the chancel, among others, is a grave-stone for Galfridus, once rector of this parish; another, with a brass plate, for John de Rokesle, once lord of Lullingstone, obt. 1361; arms, a cross, a rook in the dexter quarter; another, with the figure of a man armed, and a lion at his feet in brass, inscription in black letter, [Page 549] for Sir William Peche, obt. 1487, at the corner of the stone are four shields of brass, containing those of Peche, being azure, a lion rampant ermine, crowned, or double queved furchee, with its quarterings and impalements. On the south side of the altar is a most sumptuous and losty monument, and under the roof of it, which is richly adorned with gilt roses, &c. a sarcophagus, on which lies the figure of a man in armour, with his crest at his head and feet, being a lion ermine crowned, or, beside him is his lady, and above an inscription for Sir Percyval Hart, heir to the Peche, who lived in the service of four princes, under the first of whom he was knighted, and chief sewer and knight haringer under all; he matched into the family of the lord Bray, and had by his lady twelve children, he died æt. 84; above the inscription are the arms of Hart and Peche quarterly; on each side, Hart and other quarterings. On the north side is a most magnificent monument of stone, which separates the two chancels, it is enriched with great variety of gothic work; at the bottom, under an altar table of stone, supported by small pillars, lies the figure of a knight in armour, with his head resting on his crest, being a demi lion rampant remine crowned, with a gorget of flowers round the neck, and his feet against a lion couchant crowned, on his tabard, the arms of Peche as above, and the motto, Prest a faire; in different places about the monument, are shields of Peche, with its impalements and quarterings, and the arms and supporters of the Grocers Company. This pile of excellent sculpture for that age, is in memory of Sir John Peche, knight-banneret, who in king Henry the VIIIth's reign, was constable of Dover-castle, lord deputy of Calasis, &c. He founded the alms-houses at Lullingstone, and gave 500l. to other pious uses, to be performed by the Grocers Company, of which he was free.
Under the window at the east end is a noble tomb of alabaster, on which lie the figures of a man in armour and his lady, in the dress of the time, with their hands conjoined, at their heads is a lion couchant ermine, crowned, or; at their feet a garb of arrows argent, being for Sir George Hart, second son of Sir Percyval Hart, and two daughters, obt. 1587, æt. 55, on it the arms of Hart and of Bowes; a grave-stone for William Hart, esq. eldest son of Sir Percival Hart, obt. 1671, æt. 77; arms, Hart and Peche quarterly. On the west side of the chancel, which it entirely covers, is a beautiful monument executed in the gothic taste in stucco, in the form of a screen, and ornamented with a great number of shields of arms. In the centre, on which marble, arched in the form of an entrance or door-way, which reaches to the pavement, is an inscription for Percyval Hart, esq. the munificent repairer and beautifier of this church, representative in parliament for this country in the two last parliaments of queen Anne, obt. 1738, æt. 70; the shields of arms on the [Page 550] monument are numerous, being forty-four different ones of Peche and Hart, with their impalements and quarterings. On the north side is a very elegant mural monument, with a profile head of a lady encircled with figures and ornamental sculpture; on each side are two fine urns of brown marble, in memory of dame Anne Dyke, who died in 1763, æt. 71, only child of Percival Hart. esq. of this place; she was twice married, first, to John Bluet, esq. of Holcomb-court, in Devonshire, and afterwards to Sir Thomas Dyke, bart. of Horeham; Mr. Bluet died in 1728, æt. 29, and was buried here. Sir Thomas Dyke died in 1756, æt. 58, and lies buried in this chancel; above, in a lozenge, are the arms of Hart, impaling on the right Bluet; on the left, Dyke. The several windows are filled with painted glass, in compleat preservation, much of them of scripture history, intermixed with shields of arms, belonging to the above families of Peche, Hart and Dyke, erected at different times, one by Sir Thomas Dyke so late as 1754. (fn. 12)
In the 15th year of king Edward I. the church of Lullingstone was valued at twelve marcs. (fn. 13) Richard, bishop of Rochester, in the year 1412, united the parish and church of Lullingstane to this of Lullingstone, with the consent of Sir Reginald de Cobham, lord and patron of the former; and of John Peche, lord and patron of the latter, and all others interested in them; by reason that the parishioners of Lullingstane had decreased to two families only; and that the income and revenue of the church was become so small, as not to afford a decent support to the rectors of it; and the bishop, by his decree, added the parishioners of the parish church of Lullingstane to that of Lullingstone, together with the cure of souls, and families, with oblations, and all and singular the tythes, excepting those of sheaves, hay, wood, and underwood, (fn. 14) whatsoever, which he decreed should remain as before to the church of Lullingstane, and that they should continue to be parishioners of the church of Lullingstone, until new parishioners should return, and again increase in [Page 551] the parish of Lullingstane; and further, that notwithstanding the above decree, the rector of the church of Lullingstane should sustain entirely, as he had before been wont to do, all the burthens belonging to it, as well relating to divine service as otherwise, excepting what has been before-mentioned, and which belonged to the parishioners to sustain. (fn. 15)
By virtue of the commission of enquiry into the value of church livings, in 1650, issuing out of chancery, it was returned, that Lullingstone was a parsonage, with a house, without glebe land, and worth thirty-eight pounds per annum, if Lullingstane was laid to it, which was eight pounds per annum.
And again, that Lullingstane was a parsonage, the church fallen down; one master Cockerell enjoying it, but performed no duty. (fn. 16)
In the year 1712, Percyval Hart, esq. patron of the parish church of Lullingstone, and also of the vicarage of Lullingstane, and Edward Tilson, clerk, rector of Lullingstone, presented their petition to Thomas Spart, then bishop of Rochester, setting forth, that the true value of that rectory, as certified into the queen's court of exchequer, amounted to the value of 39l. 1s. 3d. yearly, and no more; and that the true value of that vicarage, then vacant, amounted to ten pounds yearly, and no more; which vicarage was without cure of souls, having neither church nor chapel belonging to it, nor inhabitant dwelling within it, and that it was not valued in the queen's books of the first fruits and tenths; and that the rectory abovementioned was not distant from it a quarter of a mile, and humbly prayings, that the rectory and vicarage might be united and consolidated for ever. In consequence of which, the bishop united and consolidated them for ever. And he further granted license to [Page 552] the rector of the before-mentioned church and his successors, to take actual possession of the vicarage then vacant, and to take and receive the rents, profits, oblations, tythes, and other revenues whatsoever of it, and to convert and apply the same to the use and commodity of the rector of the church of Lullingstone, for the time being, who should be subject to and discharge all burthens whatsoever of the vicarage, ordinary and extraordinary, which the vicars of it were bound and accustomed to be subject to and discharge, before the union of this rectory and vicarage.

Stories relating to Krishna’s life and pastimes are found in various Vedic kinds of literature, with each focusing on particular aspects of the Lord’s life. This book is a summary study of the tenth canto of the Shrimad Bhagavatam (Bhagavata Purana), focusing mainly on the Lord’s birth, childhood activities, and several incidents from His adult life. A mixture of translations and purports, Prabhupada tells the story of Krishna’s life in a manner easily accessible to anyone, whether they be an advanced devotee or one who knows nothing about Krishna.
