High Sheriff of Kent
The office of High Sheriff of Kent is the oldest public office of the English monarchy, and was first in 1067 with Alain de Buckland ( 1045-1108 ) occupied, who held it until 1070. Was the role of the High Sheriff originally, to do justice in Kent for the king, so most of the tasks were transferred to other places over the centuries, so that today it is almost exclusively a ceremonial office. The office of High Sheriff of Kent is determined according to an official nomination of persons for the next three years by the Queen and refilled every year in March or April.
