"The history and topographical survey of the County of Kent;..." - Edward Hasted, pub 1797, vol 7

"River Hall is a seat in the south-east part of this parish (Biddenden), near Stroud Quarter, which has been for more than a century in the possession of the Beales, formerly clothiers here. Richard Beale, clothier, of Biddenden resided here in the beginning of Charles II's reign, and his grandson Mr Richard Beale is the present owner of it, and resides in it. They bear for their arms, Sable, on a chevron, or, between three griffins' heads erased, argent, as many estoiles, gules"
