There is no shrine to honour St Thomas Becket - it was destroyed along with all other English shrines by king Henry VIII in around 1538. There was a shrine because he was made a saint and medieval people came to see the place he was murdered, to pray at his tomb and in some cases hope for a miraculous cure for disease or disability.
Thomas Becket's shrine was more important than other shrines because he was the Archbishop of Canterbury who was murdered in his own cathedral. His martyrdom elevated his status, making his shrine a major pilgrimage site that attracted a large number of visitors and brought wealth and prestige to Canterbury. The popularity of his shrine also helped to solidify his reputation as a saint and martyr in the eyes of the Catholic Church.
