Henry's Restaurant
For centuries, the building known as the Sir Henry Gurnett was known as Kenningtons. It was built between 1275 and 1310 as a timber-framed, two storey dwelling, with an aisled hall. Later this aisle was removed and a south hall was added. Chimneys were built in the 17th century with further alterations made in the 19th century and other changes were necessary when Kenningtons became a public house. The remains of the original moat, as seen in the picture, is now a pleasant pond for ducks.

Henry's Moat
Not every pub has a medieval moat protecting its car park. This one would discourage anyone from crossing it who didn’t want to get decidedly smelly! The medieval manor house was converted into a pub in the early 1980’s as the Sir Henry Gurnett (a former resident) it has been through several hands since then and is now “Henry’s”.

First Cut
A rite of passage for Image as Woodland Trust volunteers cut the first crop of a hazel plantation. Image is a traditional method of woodland management see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coppicing. Other broad leaf species (such as Ash) in the planting area are being left as standards. So far no sign of Ash die back fingers and toes are all crossed!
