What reading level is Bygone Kent book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
no rich hangings decorate the bare, rough walls ; the windows, all unglazed, are sadly mutilated ; and the roof, the best-preserved portion, is almost hidden by the huge unsightly framework raised to support it. Yet, while we deplore the damage done to the building in the days of its degradation, we must not forget that, but for its adaptability to the purposes of a barn, it would have been totally destroyed more than two hundred years ago.
(Sreenwicb Jfair.
BY THOMAS FROST.
THE pleasure fairs ...of our towns and villages are diminishing year by year, both in number and attractiveness, under the combined influences of legal enactments against them and the facilities now enjoyed for a higher class of entertainments than those which they provided. At the rate at which they have of late years been disappearing, the next generation will know them only by the pictures of Hogarth, Rowlandson, and Setchel, and the contemporary descriptions of Hone and others.
The fairs of Kent which had survived the changes of the last fifty or sixty years have been swept away by magisterial edicts under the powers conferred by the Fairs Act.
