  • Codsheath was a hundred, a historical land division, in the county of Kent, England. It occupied the eastern part of the Lathe of Sutton-at-Hone, within in the west division of Kent. Codsheath was also recorded as "Codsede" in ancient records. Today the area that was the Codsheath Hundred is part of the Sevenoaks District of Kent that includes the town of Sevenoaks and surrounding area. The Hundred of Codsheath was included in the Domesday Book of 1086, that records it as having 203 houses, 44 in Sundridge and 159 in Otford. The River Darent flowed through the Codsheath Hundred, generally in a northeast direction. Several watermills were constructed on the river within the hundred, in the villages of Sundridge, Otford, Shoreham and Chevening. In the 1831 census, Codsheath was recorded as having an area of 37,720 acres (153 km2) and a population of 12,709, of which 6,394 were female, 6,315 were male, and 3,239 were males aged 20 and over. The same census recorded the population as belonging to 2,437 families living in 2,211 houses, and that 1,295 of these families worked in agriculture, and 649 families worked in trade, manufacturing, or handicraft. Codsheath, like the other hundreds in Kent, became less significant gradually over time, and although never formally abolished, it was obsolete by 1894 with the creation of new districts. In 1894 the area of the Codsheath Hundred became the Sevenoaks Urban District and part of Sevenoaks Rural District, which in turn merged with each other in 1974 to become the Sevenoaks District which remains up to present day.
