East Langdon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
East Langdon is a village in the Dover district of Kent, England; and five miles NE of Dover town.
It was mentioned in the Domesday book. The word Langdon goes back to Old English, meaning long hill. In the first reference in 861, there was one Langandune, but in 1291 there was a reference to Estlangedoun and Westlangedone (West Langdon, about one mile to the north west).
The church is dedicated to St Augustine.
