Leeds Castle

 

Although the Castle itself falls just outside of the Parish Council boundary, large parts of the Castle grounds do fall within the Parish boundary.

Listed in Domesday Book as a Saxon manor, Leeds Castle has played many roles in the intervening centuries. It has been a Norman  stronghold;  the private property of six of England’s medieval  queens; a palace used by Henry  VIII and his first wife Catherine of Aragon; a Jacobean country  house; a Georgian  mansion; an elegant early 20th-century retreat for the influential and famous; and, in the 21st century, it has become one of the most visited historic buildings in Britain.
