The Churchyard And Woods

A Memory of West Kingsdown.

I remember playing in the church woods, and getting to the church gate and being scared to go any further, because of the very old graves. I have many fond memories of climbing the big old beech trees that were there, also of being in the Scouts and laying trails for the other Scouts to follow. Also we made bike tracks in the old Second World War bomb craters and used to race each other.

I was in the 1st Kingsdown Scout troop and our Skip, Ken Marchant (your Uncle??) made great use of those woods for "Wide Games". I'll try to upload a pic of when we, as Senior Scouts, won the Kent "Operation Challenge".
