SEAL, KENT

'Seal' is a village and civil parish in the Sevenoaks District of Kent, England. The parish is located in the valley between the North Downs and the Greensand ridge to the north east of Sevenoaks town.
The village, on the A25 road, although ancient, is fast becoming part of the built-up area of Sevenoaks. Its name comes from Anglo-Saxon ''sele'' = "hall" or ''sēale'' = "copse of sallow trees".
Its church[1]
, is dedicated to St Peter and St Paul: the ecclesiastical parish only became separate from Kemsing in 1874, although there may well have been a Saxon church on the site of the present building.
