St Thomas a Becket Parish Church Capel Kent
St Thomas a Becket Parish Church Capel Kent
St Thomas a Becket church in Capel, Kent is so named because Thomas Becket is said to have preached there. There has been a church on the site since Norman times, though most of the current building dates from the 14th and early 15th centuries. It is now a redundant church and managed by the Churches Conservation Trust. Other images of the church with more blue sky and less cloud are available, please message if you are interested in seeing them! The area around Capel is still very rural with plenty of beautiful and picturesque countryside. This may all change in the near future as Tunbridge Wells Borough Council has plans to build over 4,000 new houses on green belt land which will almost certainly destory its charm and beauty. To find out more about these plans and campaigns against them please visit the Save Capel website: savecapel.com Facebook Page: savecapel2020 Twitter: SaveCapel
