St Mary Magdalene C Of E Church - Gillingham

I have always wanted to visit this church for some reason. After years of walking past it and wondering what it looked like inside, I discovered that it was open for the annual Ride and Stride event. I took this opportunity to see the church, and I'm glad I did because it is so beautiful inside.

This church is over 100 years old and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. It is also Grade II listed. Some, if not most, of the stained glass windows are over 100 years old. Since 2019, the church has also opened its space for coffee mornings.

Canada House - Gillingham



Date January | Location Gillingham kent | Status Abandoned


This exploration is the third on our list today and marks the final successful venture we had planned. Overall, it was quite easy and straightforward.


Canada House was originally a Royal Navy hospital serving naval families since 1910. It later transitioned into an NHS mental health hospital but closed in 2019 and has remained empty since then. There are plans to convert it into flats.

Prince William barracks - fort Amherst - Chatham

 Prince William barracks - Fort Amherst 

Date: August 2022

Location: Medway

Public or Abandoned:   Public

Demolished:   No


 But I just thought ill take a little trip up to the fort on a semi raining day with my toddler just to get some fresh air, we walked around the fort and she got to splash in some puddles so she was happy

So it said that the barracks were named after William who was the 3rd son of George, It also said that the battery was used in the 19th century for royal saluting even after the fort became obsolete.

the battery was left for a long time before to become overgrown, but it got the go-ahead in later 2017/ start of 2018 to be restored and opened to the public
