KENTCHURCH PARISH

Introduction

Kentchurch is a small village and civil parish in Herefordshire, England. It is located some 13 miles (21 km) south-west of Hereford and 13 miles (21 km) north-east of Abergavenny, beside the River Monnow and adjoining the boundary between England and Wales. The village name probably derives from an original dedication of the church to a 5th-century nun, Cein, or her sister Ceingar, who were daughters of Brychan, king of Brycheiniog. The area was historically Welsh-speaking and part of the land known as Archenfield. According to one version of the legend, Kentchurch was the home of the folk figure Jack o' Kent.
