Description

Engraving of "Chatham Dockyard from Fort Pitt" from Ireland's History of Kent, Vol. 4, 1831. It appears between pages 348 and 349. Drawn by G. Sheppard, engraved by R. Roffe.

[This view is taken looking northwards down the River Medway (Chatham Reach) towards the estuary. Chatham Dockyard is on right hand bank of the river. To the right of the dockyard, the elevated area is known as the Great Lines, or Chatham Lines. The built up area sunk between the Lines and the hill from which the view is taken, consists of the town of Chatham on the right, merging into the town of Rochester to the left. The spur of land from the left is Frindsbury. (Note by User:JackyR)]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
