Eanswith, daughter of king Eadbald of Kent, who was the son of Saint Ethelbert, the first Christian king among the English, founds the Benedictine Folkestone Priory, the first nunnery in England.
The abbey is dedicated to Saint Peter. (Like many other similar foundations, it will be destroyed by the Danes and the ruins will subsequently fall into the sea.)
