We are just 3 followers short of crossing the 3000 mark, but the figures show that we have twice as many people looking at our page that do not follow us, that means we could have another 6000 followers !!! Please consider following us and help spread the word about our restoration, or even better come visit us for a guided tour and help financially with the restoration. Father’s Day is coming up in two weeks time, treat Dad to a tour and a visit to the north Kent Thames shore line, we look forward to meeting you.
Tours can be booked via ticket source
