There are two places in Kent called Kingsnorth, but the one documented here is now a suburb of Ashford. A transcript of the Domesday Book of 1086 indicates that there was a settlement at Kingsnorth controlled by the Manor of Wye. The original meaning is a detached piece of land belonging to a royal estate.
Not a lot of great significance, the village does boast a tiny little house, known as Mouse Hall, a Grade II listed building which dates from the 15th. Century
and next door, the church of St. Michael & All Angels.

And this one, is the Roll Of Honour of all those who served in the same war
