Canterbury claimeth i● the said Parish of St. Martin This City hath had several disaster● viz. by Fire above 900. years since the like about 740. years since By Burnings by the Danes above 640. years since by burning again about 150. years afterwards But that which is conceived to have added to the decay thereof of latter times was the suppression of the famous Monastrie of Christ-church and St. Augusti●e and the other religious houses there which occasioned much frequenting of the same To which also may be added the late ruine of the Cathedral and other app●●tenances thereof which as is to be feared will more eclipse the glory and wellfare of the same And touching the Castle here which is and alwayes hath been without scruple in the County of Kent many questions have been made touching the foundation thereof but I shall onely briefly touch thereupon I find it was by the command of Iulius Caesar the Romane Emperour at his coming into this Nation about 1700 years since built according to the Romane order and Hengist King of Kent about 200. years since committed the Goverment thereof to one L●dias a Saxon who governing the same many years it gained the name of Lodias Castle which name it retained untill and in the time of King Ethelbert who about 150. years afterwards upon his conversion to the Christian faith giving to Augustine the Monk his cheif seate at Canterbury reserved by name Lodias Castle Afterwards the Danes as aforesaid burning this City also raced this Castle which continued ruined till the co●ing of King William the Conqueror who built and fortified a Castle upon the old foundation called the same the New Castle and gar●isoned therein 700. men Afterwards King Stephen committed the custody thereof to William of Ipre Earle of Kent and since by length and changes of times and by tempests the same is become much ruined yet the generall Sessions of the peace for the County is here usually holden twice in the year viz in Iuly and Ianuary The place is reported to be in the aforesaid Parish of St Mildred but in no hundred and now for the reasons aforesaid I forbear further inlargement either touching this City or Castle By what is before written it appeareth that this County of Kent is divided into two divisions viz. West and East Which West division abutteth to the river of Thames towards the North to the County of Surrey towards the West to the County of Sussex towards the West and South and to the East division towards the East It containeth both the Laths of Sutton at Hone and Aylesford and the lower division of the Lath of Scray The East division doth abut to the German Ocean towards the North and East to the narrow Seas towards the East and South to the County of Sussex towards the South and to the West division towards the West And conteineth the upper division of the Lath of Scray and both the Laths of St. Augustine and Shipway These two Divisions may in any Map of the County be divided each from other by pricking a line from the Top of the East side of the Isle of Greane down to the Channell and exc●u●e from the West division the Churches of Queenborough Iwade Halstoe Vpchurch Rainham and 〈◊〉 Then prick the line down the East heads of the Chur●hes of Stockbury and Bicknor Then prick the line from the bottom of Bicknor Church Eastward over the Churches of W●●msell and Frindsted and under the Churches of Milsted Kingsdown Dodington and Newynham Then between the Churches of Easeling and O●●rynden and at the East side of the Church of Ot●rynden and under that Church Westward to the top of the East head of the Church of Leneham and down the East head of that Church by the East side of the Church of Bo●ghton Malherbe To the East head of the Church of Hedcorne and down that East head and Eastward to the West head of the Church of Smarden and down that West head and Eastward to the West head of the Church of Betherisden and down that West head and Eastward to the top of the East head of the Church of Shadoxherst and down that East head to the West head of the C●urch of Warehorne and down that West head to the Westside of the Church of Snargate and then Westward under the Church of Apledore and from thence along the Channel over the Church of Ebeney and down as the river goeth to the East side of the Church of Newenden and so into the Channel Note That in all places where the line to part the Divisions or Laths i● by this Book directed to be drawn down the head of any Church either East or West that there that Parish is in b●th the Divisions or Laths but the Church is in that Division or Lath where the body of the same is This County hath in it five Laths viz Sutton at Hone Aylesford Scray St. Augustine and Shipway which do severally contain and may be divided each from other as followeth The Lath of Sutton at Hone. LIeth at the West side of the County and abutteth to the River of Thames towards the North To the County of Surrey towards the West to the County of Sussex towards the South and to the Lath of Aylesford towards the East From which Lath of Aylesford it may be divided in any Map of the County by drawing a line from the river of Thames between the Ch●rches of Swanscombe and Northfleet and between the Churches of Southfleet and Ifeild and down between the Churches of Fawkham and 〈◊〉 and between the Churches of Hartley and Mep●●● from thence down the Eastsides of the Churches of 〈◊〉 an● Ash then between the Churches of Kings-●●●● a●d 〈◊〉 then dow● by the East-side of the C●urch of 〈◊〉 from thence down between the ●hurches 〈◊〉 and Ightham and between the Churches 〈…〉 and 〈◊〉 from thence down to the top of 〈◊〉 East head of the Church of Lyghe from thence to the 〈…〉 the Church of Pensherst and down that Ea●● head to the top of the East head of the Church 〈…〉 and down that East-head and under that Church 〈◊〉 over the Church of Asherst to the point a litt●e above the ●●eeple of the ●ame Church This Lath hath in it two divisions of Iustices of the Peace of the County of Kent I.
