Maidstone Barming is a civil parish in the Maidstone District of Kent, England. It lies to the west of Maidstone, the county town, and had a population of 2234 persons (2001 census). The eastern end of the parish is part of the built-up area of Maidstone, although the remainder is much more rural. The River Medway is the southern boundary of the parish.


Barming is mentioned in the Domesday Book, and was then described as being divided into East and West; the latter being known as Little Barming, and having its own church until the 16th century.


Barming Primary School dates back to 1854 but is not now located on the original site.[3]

Transport


Barming railway station, on the London /Maidstone/ Ashford route, was opened with the line on 1 June 1874 but is not actually located in the parish. It lies 1 mile to the north and is in the neighbouring borough of Tonbridge and Malling.


The railway station named East Farleigh lies in Barming parish, at the extreme southern boundary adjacent to the River Medway. This is on the scenic Medway Valley Line linking Strood, Maidstone and Paddock Wood.


The A26 road crosses the parish. Local bus services are provided by Arriva Southern Counties and Nu-Venture.



St. Margaret's Church




Saint Margaret's Church


Surrounded by peace and tranquility the church was built in the Norman period[4] (12th Century) and has a characteristic triangle of east windows and a tower in the perpendicular style has been added. The Church is Grade II* listed and some of the gravestones are Grade I. Amongst many items that you can see are three bench ends made in Germany in 1300. Inside the churchyard is a mounting block - four stone steps built in the 19th century to help riders to mount their horses.



Culture


At 7.15 p.m. on 1 May each year, local morris dancers Kettle Bridge Clogs [5] dance across Barming Bridge (otherwise known as the Kettle Bridge) which spans the River Medway at the southern end of South Street. This event marks the official start of their morris dancing season.

Volkswagen Group MQB platform

Image
The Volkswagen Group MQB platform is the company's strategy for shared modular design construction of its transverse, front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout (optional front-engine, four-wheel-drive layout) automobiles. Volkswagen spent roughly $60bn [1] developing this new platform and the cars employing it. The platform underpins a wide range of cars from the supermini class to the mid size SUV class. MQB allows Volkswagen to assemble any of its cars based on this platform across all of its MQB ready factories. This allows the Volkswagen group flexibility to shift production as needed between its different factories. Beginning in 2012, Volkswagen Group marketed the strategy under the code name MQB , which stands for Modularer Querbaukasten , translating from German to "Modular Transversal Toolkit" or "Modular Transverse Matrix". [2] [3] MQB is one strategy within VW's overall MB (Modularer Baukasten or modular matrix) program which also includes th...
