Little Mongeham

Little Mongeham is a small hamlet near Dover in Kent, southeast England. The main buildings are Little Mongeham House and Manor Farm. The population of the hamlet is included in the civil parish of Sutton. Yet Little Mongeham was, until the early twentieth century, a parish in its own right, including Studdal and Maidensole, and with its own rector[1] — albeit the church has long since been in ruins, the foundations to be found just to the southwest of the double bend in Willow Road through the village. The scholar Richard James held the living of Little Mongeham from 1629.
