Haunted
Kent

Kent’s recorded landscape spans prehistoric sites, Roman routes, medieval religious houses, castles, coastal defences, dockyards and later military works. Historic England’s county record shows listed places across every major period, while the coast and old cross-county routes have continually moved soldiers, pilgrims, traders and travellers through the same ground.

That depth of history gives folklore somewhere to gather. A repeated account may tell us something important about local memory even when it cannot establish that a supernatural event occurred. The directory therefore separates KASE fieldwork, documented reports and folklore instead of blending them into one claim.
