Kent Maps and Tithe
award schedules, apportionment etc.
The Tithe Commutation
surveys carried out from the 1830s to 1840s, provide a great
deal of information about land ownership, tenancy and land use
at the time. Over
400 Kent Tithe Maps have now been digitised by the Kent History &
Library Centre (K.H.& L.C.) with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
The tithe map for each parish is now on a CD-Rom. They are now
available to view in the county record office and are
also in the major town libraries for their own areas. The tithe
map CD-Rom's can also be purchased, now
for only £15 per CD. The new Kent History and Library Centre is now open
and CD's can be ordered by sending an email to historyandlibrarycentre@kent.gov.uk.
Be sure to put "Order for Tithe Map CD" in the Subject
line.
