More about this scene
Here sits a fortress dating back to Roman times. In 1170 the four knights who murdered Thomas à Becket in Canterbury Cathedral gathered here before carrying out their deadly deed. At the end of the 19th century it was in the hands of the Deedes family. Seventy years later, the art historian Kenneth Clark lived here, to be succeeded by his colourful son Alan, the Tory MP.
