Then 1970s shops echoing a 1789 bridge...
It's been another funny old day. I sold a bagful of books, making more room...and looked at prices of veg plants...😳
Came home empty handed...and after another couple of hours genealogy I've found that Pirate's family was in Kent in the 1400s...so not directly Huguenot...BUT that Possee was originally Posse...which is a Swedish surname....

Yikes at your water level! Hope you get some rain soon! I started my own tomatoes and peppers, and I am so pleased at how well they are doing. I am about ready to put them into bigger containers. Then I will plant some cucumbers.
Swedish? Viking forbears, then.
Water levels are low..but this is tidal, and a Spring low tide as well I think
Probably much later than those that went a-viking....but in the 1400s they were small landowners in East Kent
I found recently (23andme sent a message - just before they went under) that Keith had a 100% Finnish family member 1600 - 1750 ish.) Posse is probably an unusual name in UK.
Those water levels are so low. There is no boating to be done on that river.
The Cross Keys is a nice old building. Is it still a pub, or is it prime for renovation into flats? I'm shocked by the low water levels. Is that all because of a lack of rain? It's been dry here but not that dry. (So far.)
No idea Steve..it has been like that for as long as I've been here...since 2012 ...
The water levels are a combination of low Spring tide added to a lack of water
There are a few here and there. But mainly in East Kent for six hundred years if not longer
