Newington History Group

The island, off Queenborough, Sheppey, was a burial ground for convicts who died aboard prison ships on the Medway during the 18th century.

The group seeks to unearth, preserve and promote the history of the village and neighbouring areas.

Annual subscription is £15 and guests (£3) are welcome.
