and combining a Mayoral Mace, a staff of office and a symbol of dignity. Extract from the first page of the Minute Book of the CPMA

An Inaugural Meeting of the Mayors of the Cinque
Ports was held at The Town Hall, New Romney, Kent on 28th
November 1979 at 10.30 a.m. to discuss a suggestion put
forward by Councillor John Hodgson of Hastings: 'To form a
Cinque Ports Mayors' Association to enable those who have
met as Mayors of Cinque Ports, or Limbs, to continue the
friendships and associations made during their Civic
Office, and their involvement in the Confederation of the
Cinque Ports, also an Association to promote interest and
discussion on the subject of the History and Traditions of
the Cinque Ports.
