17 December 1918

The Council decided to offer no objection to a site in front of Chapel Field being utilised for a proposed War Memorial at Appledore.
Housing Scheme. 

The Council is pledged to the provision of 25 workmen’s houses, and after discussion agreed to the Toumouth site as being the most suitable.
Mr J N Tuplin remarked that there were something like a thousand houses in Appledore, and if, as had been reported to them, 50 per cent, of them ought to be taken down they would want to start on something much bigger than 25. A housing scheme, which would entail an expenditure of £5,000 on road making, was turned down, and it was left to the Chairman and the Clerk (Mr W J Barnes) and Surveyor (Mr Champion) to bring up suggestions, with a sketch plan.
