Activities

Preservation and restoration of the historic Dunkirk veteran paddle steamer 'Medway Queen'. The hull was rebuilt with help from the Heritage Lottery Fund and the vessel returned 'home' in December 2013 to begin the next phase of restoration. The workshop and visitor centre are at Gillingham, Kent. Most expenditure appears as an investment in the value of 'heritage asset under construction'.
