THE 1600s - STRANGE DOGS OR SOMETHING MORE ?


(Month and day unknown) 1613 GREAT CHART, ASHFORD

People congregating in the local church were terrified by a beast which materialised in front of them. It was the size of a bull, killing a few and injuring many, before vanishing into thin air, or, s legend claims, through the hole in the wall it had created after its chaotic entrance.

July (day unknown) 1654 Pilgrim’s Way, nr MEDWAY

In his book Saunters Through Kent author Charles Igglesden wrote of a ‘great dogg’ said to have savaged and killed a man on the, “…upper road”. Although the report is vague, some claim that the marauder was in fact a large cat.
