        FROGNAL, or more properly Frogenhall, is an estate in this parish, lying about a mile south-eastward from the manor of Lucies last-described, of which it was probably once accounted a part, and seems to have been given by Richard de Lucy, the owner of that manor, about the reign of king Henry III. to William de Frogenhall, whose ancestors were seated at Frogenhall, in Tenham.
        ....Richard Frogenhall, died possessed of this estate about the 34th year of Edward III. from whom it descended down to Thomas Frogenhall, who died in the reign of king Henry IV. without male issue, from him it passed by Elizabeth, one of his two daughters and coheirs, in marriage to John Northwood, ... in two daughters and coheirs, Joane, the youngest of them, carried this estate in marriage to Sir John Norton, who about the beginning of king Henry VIII.'s reign, conveyed it to Thomas Lynacre, priest...He died possessed of it in 1524.

        Frogenhalle, Frogenhall, Frognal.
        An Introduction
        The following study was conceived following the reading of a 1720 Map showing the holdings of the Manor of Frogen-Hall (now Frognal) which brought to light not only a large moated site, but several other areas within the Manor with substantial buildings of some note, long since lost and whose sites have gone unrecognised and unrecorded. (See Fig. 1) The river Swale bound the Manor to the North and the Roman ‘Watling Street’ (now the A2) to the south. To the East lies the parent parish of Teynham with the parish of Tonge to the West. This Westernmost boundary is also the Roman boundary dividing East and west Kent and originally stretched to the South coast. .. Even the name is of Old English origin, meaning the frogs' corner or nook,...Leland however does say “..the Manor of Frogenhall (Frognal) commonly called Frogenolle joineth to the quarters of Thong (Tonge) castle in Kent by Sidingbourne (Sittingbourne) and is of a £45 rent by year..” This does show a level of administration within the Manor but little more. Hasted is more useful. He tells us that the Frognal moat marked a boundary of the nearby Milton Manor, which means that the moat was a major feature for a considerable time before the time of Hasted's work. ...
