Gravesend is a historic riverside town in Kent, situated on the south bank of the River Thames. With a history dating back to medieval times, the town served as an important port and was the first point of defense for London against hostile ships.

The town has significant maritime heritage and was a vital stopping point for ships entering London's port. Gravesend is notably connected to the story of Pocahontas, who died here in 1617 and is commemorated by a statue at St George's Church.

The town center retains much of its historic character with Georgian and Victorian architecture, while also embracing modern cultural developments. The area hosts various cultural venues and maintains strong connections to its maritime past through its riverside heritage sites. The town has evolved from its industrial roots to become a cultural hub that bridges its historical significance with contemporary arts and community activities.
