A man has died after reports of a disturbance in which rocks were thrown in the grounds of a castle in Kent.
Police said officers were called to the grounds of Lullingstone Castle in Eynsford shortly after 5.20pm on Thursday.
The force added: "It was reported that rocks were being thrown.
"A man later died at the scene and officers from the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate are investigating.”
Lullingstone Castle was built in 1497 and is a tourist attraction in the area, featuring a 15-acre lake and several gardens containing international plants.
The estate, near the famous Brands Hatch Circuit, has been owned by members of the same family since the 15th century.
The castle, which opens for three days per week during spring to autumn, has shut due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Kent Police on 101, quoting 28-1127.
