The Stockbury village sign is on the green opposite the
village pub and village hall. A plaque on the sign post tells us, amongst other
things, that the village sign depicts the Motte & Bailey Castle of Stockbury
1086 (adjacent to church) with one oxen pulling a plough (from Domesday record)
underneath which is the Saxon village name STOCHINGEBERGE 1086. Beneath is 2000
/STOCKBURY / KENT and the Kent Invicta shield.
