The village website has some very interesting notes about the history of Kingston - especially that section entitled "Domesday Book and the Middle Ages". Near the top of the page is an interesting comment:

COVET LANE Running along the southern boundary of the parish, Covet Lane was the highest scoring of 200 lanes surveyed in the Canterbury area for landscape beauty, historic interest and variety of flora.

This is of particular interest as my ancestors lived in Covet Lane - though the bit of the lane they lived in is shown as in Barham parish. On Barham Downs Group of Churches website - a tour of Kingston Church
