High Halstow and the Thames Shore
The nightingale sang as though its heart would break. The infinitely slow and sweet contralto warbling filled the scrubby wood at the RSPB’s High Halstow reserve, an operatic aria against the plainer chorus of blue tits, chiffchaffs and wrens, and the stage-hand knocking and hammering of great and lesser spotted woodpeckers.
There can’t be a more poignant or a richer bird song anywhere in England on a misty spring morning, and it held us enchanted on our way down the Isle of Grain’s escarpment to the moody Kentish shore of the River Thames.

The Friends of St Margaret’s Church High Halstow
High Halstow is pleased to announced yet another new group to the Village
“The aim of the Friends is to support the Parochial Church Council (PCC) in maintaining the fabric, the churchyard and furnishings of St Margaret’s Church, High Halstow”
The aim of the Friends of St. Margaret’s Church, High Halstow, is to promote wide interest in the care and preservation of St Margaret’s Church and its history, to provide a focus of support for it and to support the (PCC) in maintaining the fabric, the churchyard and furnishings of the building.
It is recognised that many people see the Church in the community as an integral part of their environment, even if they do not attend services on a regular basis. Some can attend services only occasionally; others were baptised or married here; others are visitors or local residents who simply have an affection for the church which has been here for hundreds of years.
Please join us and help to ensure that future generations can continue to use and enjoy this lovely church.

Chattenden Woods and Lodge Hill Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)
The Parish Council are pleased to say it received today a letter from Natural England detailing the news that they have reviewed the notification of Chattenden Woods SSSI and enlarged the SSSI boundary to include more land of special interest
The enlarged site is now known as Chattenden Woods and Lodge Hill SSSI and the notification takes effect immediately
To see the full letter please click here
George Crozer said
“A development on such a massive scale as Lodge Hill, demands very careful investigation prior to consent. Today (14th March 2013) English Nature announced it will designate the site as a “Site of Special Scientific Interest” (SSSI), because of its significant population of Nightingales. This highlights the lack of a thorough investigation into the suitability of the site for development.I am fearful that the access to the site via one single route (A228), the impact on Junction 1 of the M2 (Cobham interchange) and other aspects of the proposals have received similarly scant attention.”
