What to do in Chatham
The town of Chatham developed as Britain developed its naval resources, with docks being built and workers flocking to the area to help facilitate maritime trade.
While the use of the Chatham Docks as a port ended in the 1980s, the facilities have taken on a new life as a historic attraction. The Chatham Historic Dockyard is a maritime museum and has three warships on display - the Victorian HMS Gannet, the HMS Cavalier destroyer and the HMS Ocelot, a submarine.
