//While over the centuries Maidstone earned the title of Kent’s county town and became known for its paper making and brewing industries, that has not always been the case. Maidstone first became known as a town when it was granted the royal charter in 1549, a title it was to lose five years later for its part in the Wyatt Rebellion, an uprising stemming from Queen Mary I’s decision to marry Philip of Spain. The town would regain and lose its title several more times.//
