  • The Farleighs, Boughton Monchelsea, the Loose Valley and the Roman Occupation
    The Farleighs, Boughton Monchelsea, The Loose Valley and the Roman Occupation. By Simon Elliott BSc MA (Arch) MA (War Studies) During the period when Britain was occupied by the Romans (AD43 through to the early 5th Century) both West Farleigh and East Farleigh played an important role as part of a dynamic industrial landscape in the Upper Medway Valley North-Western Kent. From the around AD50 the Medway Valley began to supply ragstone to enable the urbanization of the South East of the Province (later diocese) of Britannia, for example such building stone being used as part of the first forum in London (londinium) which began construction at this time. I believe that the ragstone was quarried from at least four sites along the River Medway. The furthest downriver was at Allington at around, or just above, the tidal reach on the River Medway. Upriver of Allington were three additional quarries, these being at Boughton Monchelsea on Medway tributary the Loose Stream, alongside Dean Street (a huge quarry) and at Teston. From wharfing on the river associated with these quarries sailing vessels would have carried loads of up to 50 tonnes of ragstone through to the Thames Estuary and then either west to London, north to Essex (where such ragstone has been found at Roman Colchester - camuludunum) or east to be used in Canterbury (durovernum cantiacorum), Richborough (rutupiae) and Dover (portus dubris). Each of these quarries is associated with villas where the elites tasked with managing the quarries would have lived, together with other settlement infrastructure. The well known site at East Farleigh featuring a villa with a temple was linked to the Dean Street quarry, while that around the river at Teston was linked with the Teston quarry.
