Monument record TR 13 NW 22 - Possible Deserted Medieval Site of Eastenhanger

Summary

Listed as a Deserted Medieval Village it should be noted that virtually no deserted villages can be proved in Kent. Kent is largely a county of isolated manors and farmsand very few medieval parishes have nucleated villages within them. Consequently, virtually no groups of earthworks of a now deserted nucleated village are known.
