History Project

The History Project is a loose affiliation of interested villagers, working towards getting everything which is even slightly history-related about Kenn into one place.

We are hugely indebted to Jane Lilly.  She is the busiest historian, beavering away on her Clevedon Town, Food History and Pottery books, but she still finds the time to assist and guide us in every conceivable way – she is our greatest resource and our most generous help.  Wherever we can we acknowledge her  in these pages, but her light, sure hand is everywhere, really.  Derek Lilly, while he had a spare minute, did a good deal of transcription which has saved us hours if not days, so we thank him, too.
