SUMMARY:Rooswijk1740 Open Day
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to support the free drop in event for all ages on 16th and 17th July at Radford House (The Old Fire Station) in Ramsgate. \n\n\nIn 2017 and 2018 an international team of maritime archaeologists undertook an archaeological project on the Rooswijk protected wreck site. Over 2\,000 artefacts were excavated\, ranging from coins to cannon balls and including both cargo and personal items. \n\n\nConservation and analysis is now nearing completion and in late 2022 the finds will be undertaking their final journey to The Netherlands. This is the last opportunity to view them before they leave the UK. \n\n\nThe free family friendly open day\, as part of the Festival of Archaeology\, will have activities for all ages\, opportunities to talk to the team who have worked on the project and to find out more about the site. \n\n\nThe event is suitable for all ages and has been supported by project partners and additional funding from the Ramsgate Town Council. \n\n\nThe details are: Ramsgate Open Days. 16th and 17th July from 10:30am till 4:30pm \n\n\nRadford House (The Old Fire Station) \n\n\nEffingham Street \n\n\nRamsgate \n\n\nCT11 9AT \n\n\n  \n\n\nFor fuller details click here for an online leaflet: https://simplebooklet.com/rooswijk1740 \n\nFor all event enquiries please email info@MSDSMarine.co.uk

SUMMARY:Sandwich and Pegwell Bay National Nature Reserve
DESCRIPTION:Agostina Campodonico talks of the wildlife of the Sandwich and Pegwell Bay areas and of the ambitious future plans for the site. \nSandwich and Pegwell Bay is a coastal reserve full of incredible wildlife. Elusive cuckoos\, rare lizard orchids and harbour seals can all be found here. Though it is recognized for having the best preserved sand dune system in South East England\, this reserve is probably best known as a birdwatcher’s gem. Spring and summer give passage migrants a warm welcome as they stop for the breeding season. Nightingales and Cuckoos loudly advertise their territories whilst the perfectly camouflaged eggs of Ringed Plovers go unnoticed on the shingle. Autumn and winter see the arrival of a spectacular number of birds completing epic journeys from places as far as Canada\, Siberia and Southern Africa\, attracted by the warmth and vast expanse of the soft\, unfrozen mudflats of the bay. \nTo hear about the work that goes on to support this natural gem come to this Ramsgate Society Talk – all are welcome but non-members of the Ramsgate Society are asked to consider a voluntary donation of £3. Doors open at 6:30 and places must be booked in advance. \n\nClick here to reserve a place: https://bit.ly/PegwellTalkTickets

SUMMARY:Talk on Building the Medieval Church
DESCRIPTION:The parish church of St Laurence will be holding a talk that we think will be popular with many of our Ramsgate Society members. The church is Grade 1 listed and nearly 1\,000 years old and the local historian Margaret Bolton will be giving a presentation on ‘Building the Medieval Church. \nShe will be covering questions like: \n\nHow did they build the church?\nWho worked on it?\nWhere did the materials come from?\nHow much did it cost?\nWhy did they build it here?\nWhat do all the carvings mean?\nHow long did it take?\n\nIt is a fully illustrated talk in two parts. the first will look at how and why churches were planted in the middle ages and at how the buildings developed. There will then be a half hour or so refreshment break during which people can explore the church if they wish. St Laurence is around 900 years old and has some excellent medieval carvings. The second part will look at the people involved in the building process\, where they came from\, how the materials were sourced and brought to site\, the way in which the work was done and what it all cost. \nTickets £5 (including refreshments) available from the Parish Office.  Email office@stlaurenceparish-ramsgate.org.uk   Phone 01843 592478 \n \n

SUMMARY:From Roman province to Saxon kingdom: the Transformation of Kent in the Age of St Augustine
DESCRIPTION:. \nThis is not our event but we know many of you will be interested to hear Dr Michael Bintley give this talk at 7pm on June 2nd at the Visitor Centre\, St Augustine’s Church. \nDr Bintley will explore all aspects of this transformation – the buildings\, the roads\, the laws\, the wars\, the literature and\, of course\, the religion. He will have plenty to say about the place of Augustine’s mission in this historic change and also tell us about the contribution of the great abbots and abbesses who followed in Augustine’s footsteps here in Kent and further afield. He will (he promises) have new facts to reveal about St Eanswythe whose relics were discovered a couple of years ago in a Folkestone church. He will also read extracts from the exciting Old English story called Andreas – and tell us what it means.  We are told that Dr Bintley\, who mainly lectures to adults at Birkbeck College\, is an excellent speaker and a real enthusiast for his subject. I am sure it will be a fun and informative evening. The cost is £3 to cover Dr Bintley’s expenses.

SUMMARY:Pegwell Bay Beach Clean
DESCRIPTION:Following a very successful and well-attended beach clean in April 2021\, we are once again organising The Pegwell Bay Beach Clean on Sunday 10th April 2022 from 1.30 till 3.30pm. We have been advised that that tide will be out at that time for easy access to the beach. \nPegwell Bay is one of Europe’s most important staging posts for migrating birds and insects. It is both a National Nature Reserve and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) but unfortunately the area suffers from litter – mainly small plastic items being washed up on to the beach all year round. \nWe are meeting at the car park in front of the Viking Ship Café from 1pm onwards. The Café will be open for drinks and refreshments before and after the event. \nThanet Coast Project and Ramsgate Town Council have kindly offered to provide us with the Litter picking equipment and after the usual briefing and health and safety talk\, we will proceed down to the beach and start the beach clean. We will be working in small groups in line with health and safety guidance. \nOnce again we are thankful to Kent Wildlife Trust\, Thanet Coast Project\, RTC and TDC for the loan of equipment and support. \nDo come and join us and bring your friends\, children and grandchildren! \nJohn Walker and Meher Basit
