Full Description

TQ660740 Desert medieval village at Denton. (1) Maurice Beresford and J.G.Hurst eds. Deserted Medieval Villages, 1971, lists 69 places for Kent in their County Gazetteers of Deserted Medieval Villages. In most cases there is nothing to prove that there was a village at the sites in question. A deserted church site or isolated church certainly does not prove the existance of a deserted village (2). Site photogrpahs (3-5).
