Wash Mills in Berengrave Nature Reserve - Rainham kent

Wash Mill 

Date : march 
Location : Rainham 
Access : Yes - on public footpath 


This was our first time exploring the wash mill. Even though I have lived in Medway most of my life, I didn't know about it until recently. So, while out on an adventure, we thought we would check it out as it was a quick explore.

It was stated that the plant was abandoned after World War I, and it was used to grind chalk that was then pumped to the cement plant at Monty Hill. The chalk used to be transported by a railway that was later abandoned.
