Thanks to Mark Hewitt for sending us this local newspaper article about the boat arriving from Chatham Dockyard in the playground at the old Annexe School in Holywell Lane, Upchurch.
Mark has some great memories of playing on the boat and wonders which children you recognise from the photo taken with Headmaster Mr Alan Andrews.
Also, what was the year?
The boat was later moved to the playground at the new Holywell School in Forge Lane, where the younger children enjoyed playing on it too.
