TR 125405 Monks Horton. Listed as a Deserted Medieval Village in Kent. (1) Maurice Beresford and John G. Hurst eds. Deserted Medieval Villages, 1971, list 69 places for Kent in their County Gazetteers of Deserted Medieval Villages. In most cases there is nothing to prive that therewas a village at the sites in question. A deserted church site or isolated church certainly does not prove the existence of a deserted village. (2) As A M Everitt has pointed out, the list of deserted Medieval villagesprovided by Beresford and Hurst, largely represents isolated churches,and there are virtually no deserted villages that can be proved in Kent.
