Hiking
Walk through the medieval village of Kinson, although in 1255 it was recorded as Ekinestaneston. Place-names ending in tun or ton are thought to point to a settlement, village, a collection of dwellings.
The whole area was widely populated at that time, as there are said to have been medieval villages at Newton, Stanton, Bockleton and Downton.
You are now in the parish of Stoke St Milborough and if you would like to read more, the British History Online site holds a wealth of information.
