Post it!

Productive day at The Ship Centre (nice cup cake too!) read a couple of books on the history of Rainham, made contact with RAVE and booked an appointment to visit Romford Library Local Studies Centre to look at some old maps of Rainham and other sources of information.

Started jotting down the variety of information coming through so far and the water isn't going away! Read about a possible tunnel linking Rainham Hall to the river which would have been created for smuggling. Also found out the May Fayre was offering coach trips down to the river from Rainham to see the wildlife there and then there is the new walkway connecting the village back to the marshes and river. Oh and the new maze at Rainham Hall is created from sailing knots.
