Statement made on 8 Oct 2024

Decision is now set for 23 May 2025, according to a written statement by Transport Secretary Louise Haigh.

The Beacon Drive/ Drudgeon Way APPLICATION, for 6 Houses, instead of 5, approved by DBC on 8th Feb 2018 with 23 Conditions.
Currently the approval appears to be in abeyance awaiting action from Vision Homes; see
DA/16/01126/FUL

In recognition of the end of the 1914-1918 World War and with a grant from KCC, the Parish Council purchased and arranged installation of a Memorial
to all those from Bean who lost their lives in the service of their country.
The stone is on the triangle of land between High Street and Shellbank Lane.
A short service of dedication took place at 2 pm on Sunday 11th November 2018, conducted by Rev. Josh Young from St. Nicholas Southfleet.


Lest We Forget - 1914-1918 World War. The men of Bean answered the call to defend their country in the First World War. 
Most of them were farm labourers. 
This LINK is to a brief description about the men who did not return, or,
as in one case, died a few years later as a result of being gassed in the war. [Research by JC]
