[Aldington After leaving Someries and before moving into Capel House, the Conrads spent the period between March 1909 and June 1910 in this Kent village, eight miles from Ashford. They resided in cramped rented rooms above a butcher’s shop, where Conrad’s study consisted of a windowless cubicle. Borys later recalled that ‘the slaughter house and the shed where the bacon was cured were situated at the back of the house … The squealing of pigs on the weekly “killing” days together with the smell … from the curing shed must have been very trying for my Father’ (MFJC, p. 60).]
