Dartford Branch Talk: Islands of the Medway Estuary  by Adam Taylor 

Adam Taylor is a keen canoeist and has explored the islands and salt marshes of the Medway estuary, a huge and beautiful wilderness.

In this illustrated talk Adam draws on a variety of historical sources to bring to life the people who lived on these islands and unlock the secret of how the twin forts of Hoo and Darnet were built and explain the stories of the pub on an island and of the infamous Deadman's Island amongst others.

Doors open 9.45am. The meeting / talk will start at 10.30am and end by 12.30pm.
