Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Collections of the Surrey Archaeological Society, 1896, Vol. 13: Part I
AN afternoon meeting on the society was held at Darenth, Kent, on Saturday, June 15th, 1895. The members proceeded by train to Farningham Road Station, thence walking to the site of the Roman villa recently excavated near the village of Darenth. Here the party was met by Mr. George Payne, Honorary Secretary of the Kent Archaeological Society, under whose supervision the excavations had been carried out. Mr. Payne gave a most interesting description of the site and of the other Roman remains in the neigh bourhood. He then conducted the party round the buildings, pointing out the curious series of hypocausts, tanks, and other noteworthy features. The temporary museum containing the smaller objects found during the work was also inspected. Darenth Church was then Visited, and ably described by the Vicar, the Rev. H. B. Stevens.
