The Museum Director introduced
the report and outlined the application made by Golding Homes for
an historic plaque at Wren’s Corner, the former Kent County
Constabulary headquarters. The applicant had acknowledged their
responsibilities under the scheme, including the permission to
affix a plaque to a listed building, and felt the building was
significant to Maidstone’s local history.
It was requested that
additional wording was added to the plaque to further explain the
significance of the site as the first county-wide police
force.
RESOLVED:That the application to erect a Commemorative Plaque at
Wren’s Cross be approved, subject to the inclusion of
additional wording, to further explain the significance of the site
as the first county-wide police force, to be formulated by the
Museum Director in consultation with the Chairman and Vice-Chairman
of the Committee.
