Parsonage Road, Eddington and its history
This is looking east along the road which is still little more than the farm track it was a century ago when the land around was part of Parsonage Farm. That was before Herne Bay was built and when the farm consisted of a patchwork of fields between the old Herne village Image and the sea shore. Back then, the great Parsonage Farmhouse and its buildings stood immediately to the right of the picture beside this road/track which leads, as it still does today, to one of the farm's surviving fields Image See Gallery at: http://www.geograph.org.uk/gallery/trail_of_a_kentish_farming_family_9094

"Fifteen Acres" - A remnant of Parsonage Farm
View from the east end of Parsonage Road. This land was part of "Fifteen Acres", one of the few fields of Parsonage Farm that has survived the expansion of the new town of Herne Bay. On the 1840 Tythe Map Parsonage Farm consisted of a patchwork of fields spread between the old village of Herne Image almost down to the sea shore, then amounting to 165 acres. By the end of the 19th century the farm had been squeezed down to a few fields of cattle supplying 'The Creameries' in the town Image and by 1914 Parsonage Farm was virtually no more.
