Melvilles 1858 Directory of Kent.

Queenborough is two miles south from Sheerness, on the river Swale. The population in 1851 was 772. It consists of one main street, and is chiefly supported by the oyster fishery. The church is an ancient edifice, consisting of nave, chancel, and tower. Here is a national school for boys and girls.

Here is my site for accessible transport in London, aka nogobritain.com; It is not bad, but help me to make it better.

Please support a campaign for Bangladesh, which will add a few pence to a piece of clothing emailing these companies who wish to see people dieing without decent rights, and also stop shopping in  these places - thank you. E.g. Debenhams, Gap and ASDA (Walmart). I will remove the companies names when they sign up to a fair deal for the workers in Bangladesh
