A blog about Buckhurst Hill.

A "memory lane" blogsite that was started in October 2006 to act as a magnet for individuals with information that they wish to share concerning the now demolished Joyce Green Hospital, Dartford, Kent, England.

The blog forms part of the consultation on the regeneration of the former Glaxo Smith Kline sites in Dartford by Essential Land. Located to the north of the town centre, the sites form part of the strategic Northern Gateway included within the Borough’s emerging Core Strategy. The Northern Gateway is an important element in delivery of new homes, jobs, shopping and leisure opportunities in Dartford.

Would you like a cinema, 5 a-side football or a performing arts venue? To find out what we are doing and to have your say on the proposed changes, participate in our Facebook consultation RegenerareDartford.

You can participate in polls, surveys and discussions to help shape our proposals and your feedback will be used to inform our planning application.

Is there anyone out there in the Gravesend, Cobham, Cuxton, Sole Street, Harvel, Great Buckland or Meopham who knows anything of the history of a small isolated cottage on Cutteridge Lane quite near The Golden Lion Inn at Luddesdown that is today called Cutteridge Cottage?
My knowledge of the place dates from the late forties, when I lived in Sole Street where I was born. It was then inhabited by an elderly gamekeeper who I think worked for the Darnley Estate, by the mid fifties it had fallen into a ruin and remained partly fallen down and used as a free range chicken house, until it was bought I was told, by a man who lived in Gravesend in the mid nineteen sixties who began to rebuild it.
When it was finished he was not to live in it for long before there was a fire there, the cottage was seriously damaged and the man became ill, apparently dying in Gravesend Hospital in the late sixties. For a couple of decades the cottage remained a ruin until someone began to rebuild it on quite a grand scale in the mid eighties, extending it and making it double storied.
I moved from the area to Shropshire in the early nineties and when I revisited the cottage, now named Cutteridge Cottage in the late nineties it was finished, but appeared to be once again abandoned and though part furnished, was becoming severely overgrown. Reference to Google Earth Maps appears to confirm that Cutteridge Cottage is still abandoned and it looks as if it is now an almost completely overgrown ruin.
I would be most interested to hear from anyone who has any genuine information about this property.
