MOOT
HORN
The Moot Horn was presented to the Town by Thomas Tourney in 1592 to summon the Freemen to vote on town business (Freemen were men who were permitted to vote). The horn was used in 1975, to mark the 400th anniversary of the granting of the Royal Charter to Hythe and was last blown to herald in the new Millennium by Bandmaster Richard Carroll of The Salvation Army, playing the Millennium Fanfare which he composed for the occasion. |
