My maternal great grandfather, George Impett, was employed as head gardener at Roydon Hall in 1906. The family lived in a tied-cottage near Wateringbury. In 1907, my great-grandfather suddenly became ill and was taken to the West Kent Hospital, where he died. (The family story is that he was kicked in the head by a horse)
My Great Grandmother and five children were then forced to leave the tied-cottage and moved to Canterbury, where they lived in a slum for many years.
