	Welcome to Kington.org.uk
		KINGTON is a market town and parish, delightfully situated and embosomed in a fertile valley on the borders of Radnorshire, and almost surrounded by water, having the river Arrow (which is famous for its superior trout) on the south side, and the Bach brook on the north and east sides.
		Harold having drawn the hostile army from the district of Kington, from political motives and by way of revenge for the aid afforded to his enemies, dispossessed the land proprietors of their estates, and divided them between the king, himself, and the officers of the army.
		What the name of Kington was previously is not known, but the place, as well as many others in the surrounding district, obtained at that time a new appellation as well as a new proprietor; it was deprived of its ancient Welsh name and the present English one given in its stead.

		Israel's armed forces have drawn up a plan to seal off lands running along the Palestinian side of the 1967 Green Line which marks the periphery of the West Bank to create a closed military zone that would be almost one and a half miles wide in places.
		The proposal, which Israeli government officials justify as a security measure against rising guerrilla attacks, was condemned by senior Palestinian officials as another draconian form of collective punishment against the population, which has been living under an Israeli blockade for months.
		The plan known euphemistically by Israeli officials as the "seam zone programme" was expected to be unveiled by the army yesterday, but Ariel Sharon, the Israeli Prime Minister, delayed it to allow a cabinet debate on the basis that that it had "far-reaching" implications.
