Best Answer

Archbishop Thomas Becket left England (not the UK, which did not exist until much later) in October 1164; he departed from the port of Sandwich in Kent and went to Flanders. From there he went to the pope at Sens in France in 1165 and then to the Cistercian Abbey at Pontigny. At the end of 1166 he returned to SEns where the king of France paid all his expenses for the next 4 years.
