Chatham
With a history stretching back more than 400 years, Chatham is a fascinating maritime destination. The wonderfully preserved naval dockyard, now The Historic Dockyard Chatham, produced many famous ships including Nelson’s flagship HMS Victory. That’s not all that Chatham has to offer either; step back in time at Dickens World, and experience life as the great author would have.
