Monument record TR 36 NW 79 - Possible site of a medieval village, near Woodchurch, Ramsgate

Summary

Site of medieval village identified from cropmarks. It has been suggested that there is often very little evidence to prove that there ever was a village at the sites in question, though there may in some cases have been a manor house and perhaps one or two farmhouses and/or cottages. A deserted church site or an isolated church certainly does not prove the existence of a deserted village, though of course it is quite possible that further research or excavation may bring genuine deserted villages to light.
