Gillingham

 

Gillingham is a town in the unitary authority of Medway whose name is taken from Old English and means “a homestead of Gylla’s family”, and was first recorded in the 10th century as Gyllingeham.

In medieval times the part of Gillingham known as the Grange was a limb of the Cinque Ports, while the town was known for its dockyard founded by Queen Elizabeth I.

Gillingham has a large street market running in the high street on Mondays and Saturdays, which is the busiest in the whole of Medway, and brings together around 50 stalls. The town also has a marina and is an important retail centre.

About our e-newsletter

We promise that we will never, ever pass your details to anyone else or overwhelm you with emails – we send one a month, occasionally two (unless we have something really amazing that we think you will want to know about straightaway!).

And we will always make it really easy for you to unsubscribe – one click, straight from the email. We never want to lose our readers but we know how hugely irritating it is when the unsubscribe facility is made as difficult to use as possible..
