Medway is made up of the towns of Gillingham, Chatham, Rochester, Strood and Rainham.Situated along the River Medway, it lies about 30 miles southeast of central London and is steeped in maritime and military heritage.
Explore Rochester’s charming high street, lined with independent shops, cafes, and pubs and dominated by the imposing Rochester Castle and the stunning Norman Cathedral. This town has strong ties to Charles Dickens, who drew inspiration from its cobbled streets and historic buildings. Nearby, Chatham is home to the Historic Dockyard, where visitors can delve into the area’s naval history through interactive exhibits, historic ships, and Victorian architecture.
