Brief facts about barfreston:

Barfrestone is a village and a former civil parish, now in the parish of Eythorne, in the Dover district, in east Kent, England. It is between Shepherdswell, Eythorne and Nonington, close to the pit villages of Elvington and Snowdown. In 1931 the parish had a population of 91. On 1 April 1935 the parish was abolished and merged with Eythorne. Alternative spellings are Barfreston and Barfreystone. The old pronunciation was "Barson" and the ancient name, "Barfriston". Now known as "Bar-fre-ston", rather than "Bar-fre-stone". At the time of the Domesday Book, when the name was written 'Berfrestone', the manor was owned by Odo, Earl of Kent. But after his trial in 1076, his assets were re-apportioned, including Barfrestone. The lands were then granted to Hugh de Port for the defence of Dover Castle. The lands passed through the hands of many other owners including Sir Thomas Browne.
