About Chatham Maritime
Chatham Maritime represents a major regeneration of Chatham's historic waterfront, blending contemporary development with the area's maritime heritage. The scheme has transformed former dockyard land into a mixed-use community with residential buildings, independent shops, cafes, and restaurants clustered around the Medway's edge. The pedestrian-friendly layout encourages exploration of the waterfront with views across the river and connections to historic sites.
The area offers a pleasant setting for riverside walks, shopping, and dining, with independent traders and well-known food outlets catering to locals and visitors. The development preserves sight lines to historic structures and maintains the character of the working waterfront, with mooring facilities and boat activities visible from the public realm. The scheme has revitalised an important part of Chatham's identity, creating a destination that serves both the local community and those seeking to explore the Medway valley. The proximity to the Historic Dockyard and other attractions makes Chatham Maritime a natural hub for visitors exploring the wider area.
