More about this scene
The ancient harbour of Tenterden, this was once a shipbuilding centre and was visited by Henry VIII in 1538. The timber-framed yeoman's house in the centre of the picture was built in about 1480 for the harbourmaster, but at the time of this photograph it was the home of the actress Ellen Terry, who lived here until her death in 1928. The half-timbered house on the left was the Priest's House, and it stands beside a small church which was rebuilt in brick after being burned down in 1514.
