Start your projectKington is a market town, electoral ward as well as civil church in Herefordshire, England. According to the Parish, the ward had a population of 3,240 while the 2011 census had a population of 2,626. The name 'Kington' is stemmed from King's-heap, being Anglo-Saxon for "King's Town", similar to various other close-by towns such as Presteigne significance "Priest's Town" and also Knighton being "Knight's Town". Kington is to the west of Offa's Dyke so probably this land was Welsh in the 8th century AD. The land was held by Anglo-Saxons in 1066, yet ruined. After the Norman Conquest Kington after that passed to the Crown on the failure of Roger de Breteuil, 2nd Earl of Hereford in 1075. Prior To 1121 King Henry I offered Kington to Adam de Port, who established a brand-new Marcher barony in this part of the early Welsh Marches. Kington seems to have been a silent barony and also was connected with the workplace of constable of Hereford. In 1172, Adam de Port, probably the great-grandson of Henry Port, rebelled as well as fled the nation. He returned in 1174 with a Scottish army, just to flee from the resulting Battle of Alnwick to the terrific mirth of the Norman court. With this his barony of Kington was taken by the Crown and also came to be an appurtenance of the workplace of Sheriff of Hereford, finally being given to William de Braose, fourth Lord of Bramber in 1203 for £100. The castle then saw activity in the Braose Wars against King John of England and was likely to have been damaged by imperial forces in August 1216. Within a couple of years a brand-new citadel was started as well as the nearby Huntington Castle as well as Kington Castle were abandoned. All that stays of Kington Castle today is a wonderful outcrop of rock covered by a couple of fragmentary earthworks. The old town gathered around the castle and also Norman church in addition to a defensive hillside above the River Arrow. St Mary's church, positioned on higher ground above the community centre. 'Chingtune' was recorded in the Domesday Book in 1086, the name significance Kings Town or Manor, high on capital over the community where St. Mary's Church currently stands. The brand-new Kington, called Kyneton in the Fields, was set out in between 1175 and also 1230 on land bordering the River Arrow and potentially designated as part of the Saxon open field system. Positioned on the direct route the drovers extracted from Hergest Ridge and also with 8 annual fairs, Kington grew in relevance as a market community and also there is still a prospering livestock market on Thursdays. The community keeps the middle ages grid pattern of roads as well as back lanes. In the chapel of St. Mary's Church, there is the alabaster burial place of Sir Thomas Vaughan of neighboring Hergest Court, slaughtered at the Battle of Banbury 1469, and his better half, Elen Gethin. The ghost of Sir Thomas, and also that of the Black Dog of Hergest are stated to haunt the area around Hergest Ridge. The Black Dog's sighting reputedly presages death. It is additionally rumoured to have actually been the prototype for The Hound of the Baskervilles as Conan Doyle is known to have remained at close-by Hergest Hall shortly prior to he created the story.
