Summary
Ebony is listed as a deserted medieval village. Maurice Beresford and John G. Hurst (1971) list 69 places for Kent in their County gazetteers of deserted medieval Villages. In most cases there is nothing to prove that there ever was a village at the sites in question. A deserted church site or isolated church certainly does not prove the existence of a deserted village.
