On Monday 14 September 2026 a group from The Arts Society Gravesend visited Syon House and Gardens in Brentford. Syon House has a link to Gravesend as it was the place from where Princess Pocahontas departed on her journey to return to America. She and her husband lived in a house in the grounds of Syon House under the patronage of the owners, the Percy family, while in England. The house no longer exists. Unfortunately, she never reached home as she contracted an illness enroute and died and was subsequently buried in Gravesend.
