Gun Green and Wenman family


My husband’s WENMAN family lived in Hawkhurst from 1778 until at least 1931. For some of that time they lived at Gun Green. We have just discovered that Gun Green is so called because there was a Gun Foundry there.

Can anyone tell us anything about the Gun Foundry? Does anyone have any links to the WENMAN family?

    I would be interested to make contact with any members of the Wenman family from Gun Green. Does anyone have an email please, or do you have a local history society I could contact?
