History

Belmont is a Georgian house and gardens in Throwley, near Faversham in east Kent. Built between 1769 and 1793, it has been described as "a marvellous example of Georgian architecture that has remained completely unspoilt". The house is famous for the most extensive private collection of clocks in England. The house, garden and clock collection were all featured in March 2023 in an episode of the BBC TV programme Antiques Roadshow.
