Gravesend Nuclear Bunker

Reviewed By christophermX8173QC - Portsmouth, United Kingdom

Visited out of interest and was well worth it.Good value and worth booking up for. The simple understanding of fallout was evident by the lack of decontamination shower and air lock as well. Door umm not what I expected blast proofish.

New Tavern Fort

Reviewed By kellybain28

Love visiting the prom/ new fort tavern especially when the underground bunker is open which tends to be when the regatta is on. The area is open, clean with nice flowers planted while its steeped with history and you can get close to some of the old guns. Ok cafe and two play areas

Just a totally wonderful experience. Made to feel welcome the moment we entered. Sat in on the 'service' in the peace of it all. Everyone there had a smile for us and I was surprised at the relaxed feel in the prayer room. We were then invited to have food and sat on the floor to enjoy the hospitality given.

Statue of Pocahontas

Reviewed By PennyA806

Gravesend is easy to get to off the A226. Use GPS and plug in post code DA11 0DJ. Car park nearby. The church grounds are kept lovely and it is a very easy walk. No headstone in the churchyard since exact plot is unknown, but statue and gardens are well maintained.

Town Pier

Reviewed By ovepurd - Gravesend, United Kingdom

The Town Pier is the oldest 'Iron' Pier in the country, I believe. It shares the space with The Riva Bar which sadly has recently closed. The Riva Bar and restaurant is in a fabulous location and I would love to see it revived and open once again, it is one of the best locations in Gravesend.
