"A sarsen stone at Eynsford was "re-erected" in the 1970s. Located between the ford and the church, the stone had been lying "embedded in the ground" but was re-erected to "what was probably its original position". However, there appears to be little evidence that it ever stood upright in the first place."
Above taken form ArchSearch.
There is a Norman castle (English Heritage, The Heritage Trail) near by worth visiting.
Lullingstone Roman Villa is 1/2 mile away.
