We know that the Isle of Sheppey has been populated for a possible
8000 years. The area of the Abbey and Gatehouse is proved to be inhabited
for over 3000 years. The building that houses the Museum is probably 1000
years old. There is a wide range of artefacts including fossils, costumes,
paintings and photographs. Outstanding views can be experienced from the
battlements.
Regrettably because of the age of the building the museum is not suitable
for disabled persons but has been recently installed with a local DVD that
can be viewed on the ground floor.
