Conservation group


seeks new centre VALLEY Conservation Soci- ety is attempting to create a conservation centre on land adjacent to Upper Crisbrook Mill pond in Tovil. The group has applied for a Natwest CommunityForce award as it negotiates the purchase of the small parcel of land. If successful, the facility would be used to store mill artefacts for public display and act as a small workshop area for tool maintenance and renovation work to be carried out.

Cllr Dan Daley holds a small version of the statue to be unveiled at Brenchley Gardens


Firms praised for helping Engineers statue appeal


THE date of Tuesday, November 1 (11am) has been confirmed for the unveiling of a statue to honour Maidstone-based 36 Engineers Regiment. Maidstone Cllr Dan Daley said that the provi-


sional fundraising total of £36,000 to erect a bronze life-size image of an Engineer in Brenchley Gardens did not need to be reached, thanks to the generosity of local businesses. Cllr Daley said: “Some corporate contributions


have made significant reductions to our costs; no- tably from Gallagher – with the gift of the plinth and its placement, and the waiving of fees by Gordon Newton from the Stone Shop. “Other corporate donations have been made most generously andmoney has come from all sectors of Maidstone society.” Among those donating were the Royal British Le-


gion, The Mall shopping centre, Town Centre Man- agement and DHA Planning. The statue is being crafted by Sussex sculptor


Mary Cox and will be mounted on a ragstone plinth. It is being unveiled in time for Remem- brance Sunday. A public appeal was led by Maidstone Borough Council and the Maidstone Trust.
