More about this scene
Much vandalised in the 1950s, the prominent but isolated old church became one of the first in the Rochester diocese to lock its doors when not in use and the first to install an alarm system. The workman on the scaffolding against the tower, however, is more probably repairing the ravages of time, the most relentless vandal of all.

A Selection of Memories from Frindsbury
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Frindsbury
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
Does anyone remember a young lady called Susan Cole who lived with her family on Priestfields Ave/Rd, Rochester. Sue was good friends with my brother, Alan Turner, in the 60's; they met on holiday in Broadstairs and remained in contact for a number of years. We wondered if she or any of her family still lived in the area or if anyone has any information?
Does anyone remember the Day family who lived opposite the Bell pub overlooking the River Medway? The late Fred Day, my uncle, was the skipper of the 'Arethusa' training ship.
Yours truly,
Clive Jeffrey, Mission City, Canada.
I am looking for details of Florence Gammon, formally Dunk from Rye, Sussex. She was married to Herbert Gammon, also from Rye. The children were Arthur Eaton Gammon, 9 and Alice Gammon, 12. Her father was my great great grand uncle, Leaf Temple Dunk, 1834, from Rye.
