About Orpington
Stone Age tools have been found in several areas of
Orpington, including Goddington Park, Priory Gardens,
the Ramsden estate, and Poverest. Early Bronze Age pottery
fragments have been found in the Park Avenue area. During
the building of Ramsden Boys School in 1956, the remains
of an Iron Age farmstead were excavated. The area was
occupied in Roman times, as shown by Crofton Roman Villa,
and the Roman bath-house at Fordcroft. The first record
of the name Orpington occurs in 1032, when King
Cnute's treasurer Eadsy gave land at "Orpedingetune"
to the Monastery of Christ Church at Canterbury. The
parish church also pre-dates the Domesday Book. |
