Henry II (1138-1189), the first Plantagenet king of England, reigned from 1154. Although regarded as one of the most effective English medieval kings he is chiefly remembered for his dispute with the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Becket, the ultimate outcome of which was Becket's murder in Canterbury Cathedral in 1170.
