Monument record TQ 63 NE 19 - Possible post medieval industrial area, Brookland Wood, Lamberhurst
Summary
Brookland Wood was known as Brick Land Wood in 1839-41. On the basis of this evidence the area is thought to have been used for clay extraction. The coppice woodland may also have served as a source of fuel for this industry. There are a number of ponds in the area and it is possible that these may be the remains of previous extraction pits.
