ARSON ATTACK ON LOCAL CHURCH
A fire in the vestry of St Mary and St Eanswythe's church, in Folkestone was started deliberately say police.
Two floors of a 13th Century church, thought to be the oldest building in the town, were badly damaged. Cash was taken from collection boxes during a break-in before the fire, early on Friday (22 September).
Twenty-five firefighters tackled the blaze at the church which is known as the location of the grave of King Ethelbert's granddaughter, a Saxon princess said to have performed several miracles.
