Kingston, the brooch sign *this brooch was found in 1771 by Reverend Bryan Faussett

The Reverend had his notebook called Inventorium Sepulchrale: an Account of Some Antiquities dug up at Gilton, Kingston, Sibertswold, Barfriston, Beakesbourne, Chartham, and Crundale, in the county of Kent, from AD 1757 to AD 1773, published in 1855 by Charles Roach Smith

One of these Roman camps occupies the slope of the hill opposite Kingston Church, and thence to the westward continues a line of similar military posts, while another line branches to the eastward from Denne Hill. The tumuli in this vicinity were opened by Bryan Fausset, and their contents are included in the collection known by the name of that perserving archaeologist.

Kingstone Church has a chancel, a nave, a square western tower, and is dedicated to St. Giles. A monument in the chancel commemorates John Netersole, d. 1546, and there are also memorials to Robert Deune, d. 1594, and John Haslyn, d. 1600.

The advowson of the rectory, valued at £500 yearly, is in the gift of Sir Brook Bridges.
