Lying on the River Stour in Kent this city is famous for the Archbishop of the same name being the head of the Anglican Church worldwide. It has also become a Christian pilgrimage after the murder of Thomas Becket in the Cathedral in 1170. It has Celtic origins and there also existed a Roman settlement on the site. Even though it was bombed relentlessly during the Second World War many ancient buildings survived and modern development within the medieval town centre is strictly regulated.
