In 1939 it became a Hotel

"My friend, Mrs. George Frederick Young, who was born in the Ropers' House at Canterbury, tells me that it was of singular Antiquity, full of queer Nooks, Corners, and Passages, with a sort of Dungeon below, that went by teh Name of Dick's Hole, the access to which was so dangerous, that it at length was forbidden to descent the Staircase. The Coach house and Harness room were curiously antique; the Chapel had been converted into a Laundry, but retained its Gothic windows. At length it became needful to rebuild the House, only the old Gateway of which remains. While the workmen were busy, an old Gentleman in Canterbury sent to beg Mrs. Young's father to dig in a particular red brick, and called Banyards. It is at present in the occupation of a venerable Clergyman and Magistrate. This Mansion, in the time of Henry the eighth, was the residence of Sir Edward Bray, who was constable of the Tower in the Year 1539, and whose son married Elizabeth, the daughter of Margaret and William Roper." The household of Sir. Thomas More, 1860
