Pot holes Please report all pot holes at the KCC Highways web-site.

KCC Highways would really value your local knowledge and support to help make sure that they target roads that are important to our community. The quickest way to do this is to use their new online fault reporting tool available on their website www.kent.gov.uk/highways. The form is simple and quick to use, especially from mobile phones and tablets.

Hedges, etc

If you have a hedge or trees or bushes which border a road or pavement, it is your obligation to keep them trimmed so that rights of way for vehicles or pedestrians are not obstructed.

Dogs

Please make sure you clean up after your dog and do not allow your dog(s) to roam onto other people’s property and gardens. There is a Dog Bin located near the village green and another on Church Road.

War Graves – information needed

Do you know anything about two WW1 servicemen buried in the church yard? They are:

Lieutenant Harold Cornford, RAF died 9th December 1918.

Frank Jones died 30th September 1918.

With the right details, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission will maintain these graves in perpetuity. Please contact the parish clerk at: clerk@hoath.org if you know any of their history.

Defibrillator

The Parish of Hoath has two defibrillators, one located on the external wall of The Prince of Wales Public House, Maypole Road and the other is at the entrance to the Village hall on Church Road. To gain access to either defibrillator, call 999.
