Alternatively Horsa was supposed to be buried under a cairn at a place called Horsted in the Medway towns.
A flint cairn was said to have been destroyed in the area in the nineteenth century.
The remains of a nineteenth century fort are now in the approximate area.
According to folklore Kits Coty, a neolithic burial monument, was the burial place of Vortigen who was said to have been killed nearby in the battle of Aylesford.
The exact location of the battle of Aylesford is not known and some have questioned the reality of the Hengist and Horsa story and doubt that a battle ever took place.
The white horse, the emblem of Kent is supposed to have been introduced by Hengist and Horsa, it was said to have been their standard and according to folklore they draped it across the White Horse stone when they landed in Kent.
Many megaliths across the country have legends attached to them of famous people being buried underneath them. The Coldrum stones, in Kent also and another neolithic burial monument is supposed to be the burial place of a Black prince who died in a battle near the stones.
Stonehenge itself was considered to be a monument to Brititsh leaders killed by the treachery of Vortigen.
A few other legends I have heard about is of a horse and rider bathed in flames that haunts the area of the White Horse Stone and that the footpath to the stone is haunted by a black phanton dog that supposdly killed a travellor a few hundred years ago.
Blue Bell Hill itself is said to be the haunt of a ghostly hitchhiker, a hag, a gorilla like beast and big cats.
It is not surprising therefore that so much myth and legend is attached to the place.
