Great church, loads of local history to read, and a really old chest to look at.

Elmstone Church, located in the village of Elmstone in Kent, is an Anglican church dating from the 13th century and was designated a Grade II* listed building in 1963. The church is notable for its architecture, with a Norman-period nave and lower chancel built of flint. The church has no dedication to a specific saint, which is rare for Anglican churches in the United Kingdom. Inside there are beautiful stained glass windows, including one depicting the Passion of Jesus, and a Norman baptismal font made of Bethersden marble. The church also has a square tower at the north-west corner and a 19th-century organ that was once in the chapel at Hatfield House.

However, in the early 1920s, the company was hit by the prevailing economic depression and cheaper imported coal. Production was already reduced and in 1922, a severe in-burst of water into the Beresford seam cut production even more. That year Dorman Long joined forces with Viscount Cowdray to form Pearson and Dorman Long Ltd. The new company immediately started the preliminary work on what eventually became Betteshanger Colliery and through the Channel Steel Company, they proposed the building of a steel works on the cliffs between Dover and St Margaret’s. https://doverhistorian.com/2015/07/11/richard-tilden-smith-and-the-aerial-ropeway/
