Did You Know?Maidstone the county town of Kent has a rich history going back to the Mesolithic times. It’s home to the Archbishop’s Palace, formally the fourteenth century residence of the Archbishops of Canterbury. Maidstone began as a Saxon village. From the 10th century, it was owned by the Archbishop of Canterbury. At the time of the Domesday Book (1086), Maidstone was a large village with a population of perhaps 250. By the 13th century Maidstone grew into a town. Situated on the Medway it was ideally situated for transporting vegetables and fruit from Kent by water to London. Elephants were once a common sight in Maidstone as Maidstone Zoo was a popular tourist attraction until it closed in 1959. For 25 years local townsfolk could hear the lions roaring. The tooth of a woolly mammoth was discovered at the site of Barclays Bank in Maidstone High Street in 1959 Maidstone’s coat of arms depicts a lion and one of the town’s most famous residents, Iggy the Iguanadon. A freedom of information request in 2014 revealed Maidstone Borough Council had spent a grand total of £0 taking precautions against nuclear attack.
