Kent County Council: A259 Sandgate Esplanade, Sandgate (Prohibition of Waiting) Temporary Order 2018 A259 Sandgate Esplanade, Sandgate (Prohibition Of Waiting) Temporary Order 2018 To allow various telecoms cabling and ducting works to be safely carried out, Kent County Council has made an Order to temporarily prohibit parking on part of A259 Sandgate Esplanade, Sandgate, near Folkestone.

Waiting and loading will be prohibited at all times on both sides of Sandgate Esplanade between the junctions with Castle Bay and Brewers Hill, to the extent indicated by No Waiting signs and cones placed on site.

This comes into force from Tuesday 11 September 2018 and applies during works with an anticipated duration of 2 days. Due to the nature of the works, the restrictions will need to remain in force outside the working hours. The restrictions are in conjunction with temporary traffic lights, and the use of the nearby zebra crossing will be suspended during the works.

This Order suspends any existing parking entitlements and restrictions that apply to the sections of Sandgate Esplanade identified above.

Brian and Jenny Oxley have lived in Wayfield House in West Hythe for 40 years and when you visit you can see why. Set in a number of delightful acres, the garden, superbly tended by Jenny, meanders in an informal manner, each turning exposing something new to delight all the senses. It is no wonder this has been such an inspiration for their work.

Brian was born locally and attended the Folkestone School of Art when it was in Shellon Street. He has exhibited widely including in a RA Summer Exhibition and has his paintings in collections throughout the world. He is listed in David Buckman's authorative Artists in Britain since 1945 and in Who's Who in Art (35th Edition 2012) edited by Lynda Murray. His work pays testament to the years of practise and his experience was passed on to students at three local schools, where he was the Head of Art, and other educational institutes. Now he devotes his time to practising his craft and art and The Sentinel is delighted to provide a platform for his work particularly as half of the money he receives goes to the Parkinson Research charity who have already received in excess of ÂŁ4000 from him.

Should you wish you can visit Brian at his studio, the Mission Hut, where he would be delighted to show you round the garden too where you will enjoy this developing creativity and should discover many of Jenny's hand built ceramics featuring animals and other forms influenced in some cases by historic cultures, albeit they are not for sale.

Please donate to Parkinson's UK Every hour, two people in the UK are told they have Parkinson's. Will you help us find a cure?
