CANTERBURY’S ancient West Gat*  

spans road which took successive  

conquerors from the Kentish coast to  

London, road which has seen more  

history than any other road in Britain;  

along it has passed the Romans, later  

came the Danes, who, in time, were  

followed by the Normans. pageant of  

history extending over period of thirteen  

hundred years has passed beneath the  

West Gate which was repaired in 1380  

and Roman bricks were used in its  

construction.  

The original gate saw William the  

Conqueror after the Battle of Hastings  

on his way from London to Dover on his  

return to Normandy, Henry II passed  

through the gate on July 12, 1174,  

“barefoot and weeping” in penitent’s  

garb on his way to the Cathedral  

crypt. Beneath the arch passed  

Edward (1272-1307) and Margaret  

of France to their wedding in  

Canterbury’s Cathedral and in the follow-  

ing twenty years the massive gateway  

saw the magnificent processions of  

Edward II and Edward 111. Crusaders  

passed this way to seek the blessing of  

St. Thomas. Through the West Gate  

passed the funeral cavalcade of the Black  

Prince, “a stately hearse drawn by twelve  

black horses, the whole court and both  

Houses of Parliament following in deep  

mourning.”  

In 1500 there were riots around the  

West Gate between monks and citizens  

later Charles (1625-1649) passed through  

the gate on his way to London with his  

bride, Henrietta Maria, soon to be  

followed by Cromwell’s troops and so to  

the days of the stage coach and the  

arrival of Queen Victoria (1837-1901).  

Today the tower is open to visitors and  

serves as museum for small collection  

°f old arms and armour, fetters and  

manacles. Of particular interest in this  

collection, is scold’s bridle and ducking  

stool which were at one time in con-  

siderable demand for scolding women.
