More about this scene

There has been much debate about the age and significance of these four giant stones a mile north of the village. The most popular theory is that Kit's Coty - 'coty' means 'house' - was the burial place of Catigern, who is said to have fallen fighting the legendary Anglo-Saxon warriors Hengist and Horsa in the Battle of Aylesford in AD 455.
