🏛 A Touch of Local History & Community:
Fort Gardens, located directly opposite the property, was once part of the defensive system for Gravesend during the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, it's a beautifully landscaped public park that includes remnants of the New Tavern Fort, originally built to guard the Thames Estuary from potential invasion. Just beyond is the Gravesend Riverside Leisure Area and Promenade - a favourite spot for walking and river views, which has welcomed visitors since Victorian times.

The Promenade and Fort Gardens regularly host public events, including live music, fun fairs, and cultural celebrations - creating a lively and inclusive community atmosphere.
