Welcome to Gravesham's virtual museum 'Discover Gravesham'.
At the click of your mouse you will be able to glimpse the cultural, social and commercial heritage of Gravesend, Northfleet and the nearby villages. It is often said that this or that town has plenty of history. We all have the same amount but it is what has been preserved of that history that is important. Gravesham does not boast a mighty castle or great cathedral but we do have an important archive of writings, drawings, photographs, collections of pottery and finds from very important archaeological sites. Some of these things have been displayed in the Gravesham Museum and others at the Chantry Heritage Centre.
The Queen's Diamond Jubilee, 2012
