History can be cruel. As time passes by even the most famous and successful usually become forgotten and ignored. One such example is the author Robert Hichens, who for a short time was one of the biggest - and wealthiest - names in the entire literary world, but whose name now meets with dazed confusion and a shrug of the shoulders – “sorry, who?”

War hero, triple gong winner and Victoria Line builder: the life of Henry George Follenfant was anything but ordinary….but where he lived was. His story conclusively proves a house doesn’t have to be grand or old to have incredible stories.

Winston Churchill officially only met Mahatma Gandhi just once, in November 1906. Unofficially however, there is a chance the two men may have first met nearly seven years earlier, in January 1900, on top of a small, but strategically important hill in South Africa. Also present at this moment in history was Mr William Nightingale of 3 Archer’s Terrace Canterbury.

The lives of Henry and George Leeves are unusual in their extreme difference – their legacies reveal quite what can happen when you land on the wrong side of history.
