I have fond memories of the circus when it visited Mote Park. I also remember some sort of car event held in the park. The only one that sticks in my mind is a Vauxhall Cresta racing round the dirt track. I don't remember the cars just it was behind South park Road and had tv cameras there. I think it was a one of event.

Maidstone I remember it well: Well, not really. Only for the last few decades. However I have have a dearth of myths, memories and mysteries given to us all as we wander around the ever changing open spaces we are able still to enjoy "at no cost to you " . Once upon a time there was form of payment for entering with a car , manually collected and no doubt eventually elfed and safetied to become an expense not an income and thus discontinued . Wotif over the eighty years "we" have owned it , it had been possible to collect the cost of a couple of pints of beer each a year from ourselves, to spend on upkeep and specialist staff employment? Could a numbersmith please hammer out some possible arisings , given that say there were c50,000 Residents in 1930, there are now say c150k, wages were Y and only one percent of the population coughed up? Use the usual RPI'sand Apr and spend half the looted income annually . There might be enough to do the Museum refit. Chip Carpenter
