The patronage of this church—dedicated to Saint Thomas of Canterbury—takes us back in time to the 12th century and geographically to southeastern England. Thomas Becket (born 1118) was Archbishop of Canterbury and, in the dispute between the Church and the Crown (King Henry II), a "martyr of canon law and ecclesiastical freedom," as Pope Alexander III put it on the occasion of his canonization (1173, just three years after Thomas's violent death). His feast day in the calendar of saints is December 29th. Canterbury Cathedral, where he was murdered in 1170 and which contains his tomb, can be visited virtually in the komoot system at the following link =>> https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/231266

Lovely big beer garden, and dog friendly inside so just what we were looking for haha!

Slight uphill on the way back to the campsite, if you’re looking for accessibility. No gates or anything tho.

Seems to be angling here, but you’d need to sort permissions.

In addition to the grave pyramid for John Fuller, whose nickname was "MAD JACK", which is located here in the cemetery, there are a number of buildings to be discovered in the area, which are sometimes referred to as "Fully's Follies". For example: => a round temple (see https://www.komoot.de/highlight/1497509) and => a tower called “Sugar Loaf”. (see https://www.komoot.de/highlight/1497508)

Pretty lane/gorge throught the woods

This 35ft high circular stone tower is now obscured by trees. The onginal wooden staircase and platform were lost in a fire and have now been replaced with an iron staircase. There have been many guesses as to why John Fuller built this tower here but none have confirmed.

This domed temple folly is about 25ft tall and was built around 1810. A ring of Tuscan columns surrounds a circular room. Rumour has it that John Fuller entertained guests with card parties and debauched evenings here.
