Kington

Kington is a market town, electoral ward and civil church in Herefordshire, England. According to the Church, the ward had a population of 3,240 while the 2011 census had a population of 2,626. The name 'Kington' is stemmed from King's-ton, being Anglo-Saxon for "King's Community", similar to other neighboring towns such as Presteigne significance "Priest's Town" and Knighton being "Knight's Town". Kington is to the west of Offa's Dyke so probably this land was Welsh in the 8th century AD. The land was held by Anglo-Saxons in 1066, however devastated. After the Norman Conquest Kington then passed to the Crown on the downfall of Roger de Breteuil, 2nd Earl of Hereford in 1075. Prior To 1121 King Henry I offered Kington to Adam de Port, who founded a brand-new Marcher barony in this part of the very early Welsh Marches. Kington appears to have been a peaceful barony and was related to the workplace of sheriff of Hereford. In 1172, Adam de Port, possibly the great-grandson of Henry Port, rebelled and also left the country. He returned in 1174 with a Scottish military, only to run away from the resulting Battle of Alnwick to the great mirth of the Norman court. With this his barony of Kington was taken by the Crown and also became an appurtenance of the office of Sheriff of Hereford, finally being granted to William de Braose, 4th Lord of Bramber in 1203 for £100. The castle after that saw action in the Braose Wars against King John of England and was likely to have actually been damaged by imperial forces in August 1216. Within a couple of years a brand-new fortress was commenced as well as the close-by Huntington Castle and also Kington Castle were abandoned. All that remains of Kington Castle today is a wonderful outcrop of rock topped by a few fragmentary earthworks. The old town gathered around the castle as well as Norman church in addition to a protective hill over the River Arrow. St Mary's church, located on greater ground over the community centre. 'Chingtune' was recorded in the Domesday Book in 1086, the name significance Kings Town or Manor, high on capital over the community where St. Mary's Church currently stands. The new Kington, called Kyneton in the Fields, was set out in between 1175 as well as 1230 on land surrounding the River Arrow and also potentially marked as part of the Saxon open field system. Positioned on the direct route the drovers extracted from Hergest Ridge as well as with 8 annual fairs, Kington grew in significance as a market community and there is still a thriving animals market on Thursdays. The community preserves the middle ages grid pattern of roads and also back lanes. In the chapel of St. Mary's Church, there is the alabaster tomb of Sir Thomas Vaughan of nearby Hergest Court, slaughtered at the Battle of Banbury 1469, as well as his spouse, Elen Gethin. The ghost of Sir Thomas, and additionally that of the Black Dog of Hergest are said to haunt the area around Hergest Ridge. The Black Dog's sighting reputedly presages death. It is also rumoured to have been the model for The Hound of the Baskervilles as Conan Doyle is known to have remained at neighboring Hergest Hall soon prior to he composed the novel.

    FAQs

    How to build a fence?

    The best way to build a fence depends on what style it is, as different types have different components. However, fencing made up of posts and panels is pretty common. To put this up, you’ll need to start by measuring out and digging holes for your fence posts. Then you’ll need to fit the panels between them and use concrete to secure the posts in the ground.

    How close can I build to my neighbour’s fence?

    As a home or property owner, you’re generally allowed to build next to your neighbour’s fence as long as it’s on your own side of the property. With that in mind, there are certain laws that regulate how close a fence can be built to buildings on the same lot or neighbouring lots. In addition, there are also local bylaws that provide limitations on the placements as well as height of fences so as to address safety hazards. In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight into how close you can build to your neighbour. Let’s take a look!

     

    In general, if the fence is in your boundary then you’re allowed to build a 2-metre high brick or wooden fence or wall. However, this may differ depending on your location in the UK. As a result, you may want to reach out to your municipality’s building department in order to determine what these rules and limitations are in your area. In the events whereby there are no such restrictions but you’re still concerned, you can try informing your neighbour what your concerns are. However, if they’re not receptive there are some steps you can take to ensure your plans go as smoothly as possible. These steps include the following:

    • Ensure to leave sufficient space for both the posts and footings
    • Stagger your fence posts in order to make sure you’re not digging your neighbour’s
    • Consider using concrete posts as they’re much stronger and will last a lot longer
    • Use kickers or plinths for raised gardens and flower beds
    • Make use of concrete plinths as they won’t rot over time like a wooden fence.
    What do I need to do to maintain my fence?

    Properly erected fences shouldn’t require a great deal of maintenance. Any rotting boards can usually be replaced without replacing the whole panel. Timber fencing should be stained every 2-3 years. General maintenance is something you can carry out yourself, however, larger works may need a qualified professional to come in.

    How to tell which fence is yours?

    If there’s a fence dividing yours and your neighbour’s properties that needs maintaining or replacing, you’ll want to know who owns it. Start by checking your deeds to see if there’s an existing boundary agreement. If there isn’t, have a chat with them to see if you can come to an arrangement yourselves.
