Charing Palace

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Charing Palace The remains of an 11th century bishops palace. Charing Palace was used by Archbishops of Canterbury as a stopping place between their London residence of Lambeth Palace and Canterbury.


It is thought that both Henry VII and Henry VIII stayed at the palace on numerous occasions. Charing Palace was used for many years as a farm building, but attempts have been made recently to obtain funding for restoration.
