  • Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017
    Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017 Executive Summary The Medway Heritage Asset Review intends to provide a comprehensive overview of the heritage assets in Medway in order to inform the development of a Heritage Strategy to support the emerging Medway Local Plan 2015. Medway benefits from a rich heritage spanning millennia, underpinning the local distinctiveness and creating a unique and special character that can be readily interpreted through the historic environment. The main report is broken down into sections, initially looking at the topography of Medway and how this influenced human settlement in the area, then looking at the development of the key settlements in Medway; taking into consideration the key drivers for their establishment and identifying existing heritage assets. Furthermore, the main influences to development in the area are also considered; including Chatham Dockyard and the military, the brick, cement and lime industry, agriculture, maritime and religion. Through investigating Medway’s history both geographically and thematically, the significance of heritage assets and the importance of historic landscapes can be readily identified; enabling a better understanding and providing opportunities to enhance their enjoyment. Non-designated heritage assets are also identified using a broad range of sources; providing a deeper knowledge of what shapes the distinct local character experienced in Medway and the how this identity is of great importance to the local community. The report concludes with suggestions for additional areas of research and identifies themes to be considered to inform the development of a coherent and robust Heritage Strategy that will help enhance, understand and celebrate Medway’s heritage for years to come.

  • Remni May 31
    MAY 31 remembrance ni HMS Defence and HMS Warrior passing the battlecruiser squadron at the Battle of Jutland Battle of Jutland The battle which took place off Denmark’s Jutland peninsula was the largest naval battle of the war and it was definitive in terms of naval engagement for the remainder of the hostilities. The Battle of Jutland was the only time that the British and German fleets of 'dreadnought' battleships actually came to blows. It was a confused and bloody action involving 250 ships and Page 1 MAY 31 around 100,000 men. It saw the greatest ever exchange of naval gunfire. The battle resulted in the loss of HM ships Queen Mary, Indefatigable, Invincible, Defence, Black Prince, Warrior, and of HM TBD 's Tipperary, Ardent, Fortune, Shark, Sparrowhawk, Nestor, Nomad, and Turbulent. Commander Edward Bingham from Northern Ireland was awarded the Victoria Cross for his leadership. The Flag Captain of HMS Iron Duke at Battle of Jutland, was Frederick Dryer from Armagh. Over eighty men from Northern Ireland were amongst the casualties. The German navy sought to engage the Royal Navy with a view to weakening it so that in any later engagements the balance of power would be more in its favour. The German commander, Admiral Scheer, planned to attack British merchant shipping to Norway, expecting to lure out both Admiral Beatty’s Battlecruiser Force and Admiral Jellicoe's Grand Fleet, further away at Scapa Flow. Scheer hoped to destroy Beatty before Jellicoe arrived On May 30th 1916, Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, Commander in Chief of the Grand Fleet, in accord with the general policy of periodic sweeps through the North Sea ordered the ships of the fleet to leave their bases.

  • Brave Record Issue 8
    Issue 8 Page !1 Brave Record ! The dangerous potential of men, mines and munitions Without a shot being fired, the mixture of men, mines and munitions is always a potential for danger. This was proved on the morning of Thursday, November 26th, 1914, when HMS Bulwark (photo above), moored near Northern Ireland - Service in the Royal Navy - In Remembrance Issue 8 Page !2 Sheerness, was torn apart with an internal explosion and sank. At least three men from Northern Ireland died. A similar incident occurred on HMS Princess Irene the following May in which at least eight men from Northern Ireland were killed. HMS Bulwark HMS Bulwark, a battleship of 15,000 tons, was moored to No.17 buoy in Kethole Reach on the River Medway, almost opposite the town of Sheerness, Isle of Sheppey, Kent. It was one of the ships forming the 5th Battle Squadron. She had been moored there for some days, and many of her crew had been given leave the previous day. They had returned to the Bulwark at 7 o'clock that morning and the full complement was onboard. The usual ship's routine was taking place. Officers and men were having breakfast in the mess below deck, other were going about their normal duties. A band was practising while some men were engaged in drill. The disaster struck. A roaring and rumbling sound was heard and a huge sheet of flame and debris shot up. The ship lifted out of the water and fell back. There was a thick cloud of grey smoke and further explosions.

  • Dover Patrol
    DOVER PATROL (Trawlers & Minesweepers) Civic War Memorial This important local civic war memorial was placed inside the Holy Trinity Church, Dover in November 1918 by the families of the fallen men of the Dover Patrol (Trawlers & Minesweeping Patrol). In 1945 the church was sadly demolished after enemy bomb damage. The memorial needed a new home. The Dover Sea Cadets (Training Ship Lynx) at Archcliffe Fort agreed to look after it at their headquarters. The Sea Cadets moved from Archcliffe Fort in the 1970’s and the memorial was given to Dover District Council for safekeeping. The memorial is presently held in safekeeping by the Dover Museum. In 2006 it was being stored in an obscure shed at Deal. It is hoped that the memorial will be placed on public display at some stage in the future… The Great War 1914 – 1919 LEGEND + DIED IN SERVICE Roll of Honour LEFT HAND LEAF Sub Lieutenant J.H RIDDING + Petty Officer A FIELDER + Sub Lieutenant D BROWN + Petty Officer F ALLEN + Wireless Telegraph Operator E.A SUTTON Seaman F RANDALL + + Lieutenant W.H MERTON Deck Hand J.N LAMBIE + Sub-Lieutenant F.R WINPENNY + 2nd Engineer W SHELLEY + Lieutenant Commander H CALDER + Steward G SMITH + Assistant Engineer F.W PENDER + Cook W MOORE + Sub Lieutenant J.A MACINTOSH + Assistant Steward G MAJOR + Skipper J SANDFORD + Signal Boy A.W MANNING + Skipper R SAUNDERS + Trimmer W.H MOSS + Skipper G WEST + Fireman Trimmer A.S MOTT Skipper G.A ROSE + Fireman Trimmer K AYLES + Skipper I PEARCE + Greaser E PRITCHARD + Skipper T KAY + Able Seaman H CARLING + Lieutenant
