Ravinder Singh here holds a Tights Ball made using 320 pairs of nylon tights and weighs around 10kg. This is how much landfill 320 pairs of nylon tights take up and there are around 2.5 billion pairs made each year. This ball will not begin to break down for at least 1,000 years!

The Diocese of Rochester decided to close the church because of the cost of repairs, but it was rescued and purchased by Gravesham Borough Council in 1975 and transformed into an Arts Centre.

SIR FRANCIS BEAUFORT The Beaufort Scale was created by Sir Francis Beaufort, an Irish-born Royal Navy officer and hydrographer, in the early 19th century. Beaufort developed the scale as a way to standardise the reporting of wind conditions for the British Navy, which he served in for many years MAHARAJA SIR DULEEP SINGH Maharaja Sir Duleep Singh, GCSI (4 September 1838 – 22 October 1893), or Sir Dalip Singh, and later in life nicknamed the "Black Prince of Perthshire" was the last Maharaja of the Sikh Empire. He was Maharaja Ranjit Singh's youngest son, the only child of Maharani Jind Kaur. JOHN FRANKLIN EXPEDITION HMS Erebus and Terror were two Royal Navy ships captained by Sir John Franklin during his ill-fated expedition to find the Northwest Passage in the Arctic in the mid-19th century. The expedition is notable for the innovative technology and equipment onboard the ships, some of which were groundbreaking for their time, including steam power, air-tight food containers, a portable observatory and desalination apparatus. CHARLES DICKENS Charles Dickens had many connections to Gravesend and lived nearby. He may have based Great Expectations on the town and possibly made a significant donation to the building of St Andrews. The Fourth Portal offers real-world and virtual spaces to meet, work, socialise, learn and enjoy events. Join us on the journey Do you have a town, building or location you wish to discuss?
