I know the people who restored the house directly to your right ( Painter turned film cameraman and textile designer ) as you took that picture. The round house on the corner is lovely, for some years an old woman with Altzheimers would turn up at this house most days and try to open the door with her key, convinced that this is where she lived, but she never had - she had no real connection with the house that anyone could find. The house directly to the left of the corner house was the scene of a terrible multiple murder a few years ago when the Tant family ( both parents, daughter and granddaughter ) were murdered by the Daughters estranged husband.
"Mandy Prowse studied painting and printmaking at Maidstone College of Art. She explores natural and human forms and the interconnectedness of all things. Themes in her work relate to birth, mortality and metamorphosis. Her altered books are minimalistic and organic combining a modern aesthetic with an almost Victorian touch. If you told me these books were 100 years old I wouldn’t think twice about it.”
