Sir John Franklin the explorer spent his last night at the White Hart before setting off on 19 June 1845 to find the north-west passage, a trip from which he never returned. In 1661 the White Hart was connected with a notorious murder of a prince of Transylvania by Isaac Jacob and Camirus Kargagi. They drove from Gads Hill the scene of the crime to the White Hart, then known as the Kings Head in their master's carriage but were caught here and later hung. Listing NGR: TQ5863175177
