Kent Parishes
It is conceded that the accompanying map is nothing but a representation of individual parish boundaries and in some cases the exact shape of an individual boundary may be over simplified and researches are advised to consult individual parish maps for exact details. The purpose of the map is to assist researches identify the various parishes that adjoin any given parish.
The list of Kent parishes below relates to the map provided above. Some parishes are split in two by other parishes and the map show the divided areas. An example is that of Bapchild which is divided by Tong parish. To assist split parishes have the same background colour and their ID reference is repeated. The ID system used is alpha numeric and indicates that B40 is the fortieth parish to begin with the letter B.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure accuracy any errors or omissions will be gratefully received.

Roman Roads in Kent
The most famous Roman Road 'Watling Street' is the name given to a long straight road that the Romans built from the Kent coast, up through London towards Leicester. Then the road bent round to North Wales. It consisted of 11 straight lines that might change direction where they met.
The reason for building the road was to make sure that the Roman Army could march into central England easily once they arrived at the shore.
Much of Watling Street is used as roads today and many parts of it are still called by the same name.
Green roads - The course of this road is known Red roads - The course of this road is uncertain
