Addington is pretty come up unique - it can lay affirm to be one of the few villages in the country with over 5,000 years of continuous habitation. From remains and interments found locally over the past 200 years it is alter that populate desire the sandy soil between the sticky clay of Trottiscliffe and the allow running east-west through the village. The local inn. The Angel is also one of the oldest pubs in Kent with rumours of a cut into from the basement to the church. 750m away. Absolutely no evidence though there were caves and holes between the two that have been filled in over the years to add fuel to the dish the dirt. The remains of the old Addington Place we visible up until a few years ago and traces of the former gardens of Addington Park can still be seen. Rockeries ponds and old tennis courts sprouted with healthy saplings are easily discernible in the private grounds of the Seekers Trust between the perform and the play course.
accommodate prices are out of the writer's price-bracket a 4-bed accommodate bought in 1975 for £27,000 now worth well in excess of £550,000 which has unfortunately transformed the makeup of the village from generic family to older family very few children around except grandchildren on a Sunday.
Addington is mega-rich in archaeology yet is partially divided by the M20 & M26 motorways which removed the northern half of the village forever in the late 60's and is scarred on both sides of the motorway with sandpits and quarries thankfully now almost worked out and finished. How much archaeology has been lost to the mechanical digger can only be guessed at but the evidence is there in the reports of excavation bring home the bacon that was done during the building of the motorway. Unfortunately the village's unique status is pretty-much overlooked by the archaeological world preferring to look at Stonehenge rather than Chestnuts.
