Queenborough
Queenborough is a small town on the Isle of Sheppey in the Swale borough of Kent in South East England. Queenborough is two miles (3 kilometres) south of Sheerness. It expanded as a port near the Thames Estuary at the westward entryway to the Swale where it signs up with the River Medway. It remains in the Sittingbourne and also Sheppey legislative constituency. Queenborough Harbour uses moorings in between the Thames and Medway. It is possible to land at Queenborough on any tide and also there are watercraft building contractors and chandlers in the marina. Admiral Lord Nelson is considered to have discovered a number of his seafaring abilities in these waters, and also shared a house near the tiny harbour with his mistress, Lady Hamilton. Queenborough today still mirrors something of its initial 18th-century seafaring background, from which period most of its more noticeable buildings make it through. The church is the single making it through function from the medieval period. The town was first stood for by 2 members of parliament in 1572. At the 2001 UK census, the parish of Queenborough had a population of 3,471.
