I was born in Gravesend in 1968 and left when I was 21. It was a fab place to grow up, in the 70's and 80's, no where better I felt. I loved the river and the prom and all the pubs with their live music when I was a teenager. Close enough to London to visit often and close enough to the Kent coast to get away easily for a seaside break. Surrounded by bueatiful kent countryside and small villages, best of everything. It has my heart.
@@rebeccamoore5536 it’s getting like that everywhere now. I spent my childhood in Bexleyheath and it was the best,went back aged 54 and it’s totally changed. Just walking around the broadway you get bad vibes.

Why is it sad??!! Every town changes. It’s called progress. Most of the shops looked derelict back then, just imagine the state of the place now if it hadn’t changed.
Gravesend was a great town plenty of pubs and fun to be had I went to the sea school in 78 so I was a peanut. You can imagine my mates and the banter I got. I am still going to sea and retire I. The next year or 2 May go for 45 years at sea. I used to walk round town with my Donkey Jacket on 🤣🤣🤣
what an amazing video. Gravesend actually looked good back then in the 70s. It definitely needs some money injected in to it as it has nothing going for it and is quite droll and dirty. Overpopulated and all the buildings filthy like they need knocking down which is ashame given the history
Actually, Gravesend is a superb town. The town centre is ok, even today. We have a great promenade, the Thames, great schools, wonderful parks, countryside and marshlands, cyclopark, diversity and cultural harmony, sports centres and transport links, plus brilliant placement for access to the continent and the rest of the UK. You could argue that Gravesend is actually one of the best places to live in the UK. Imagine how great it'll be once the lower Thames crossing is complete, the theme park at Ebbsfleet, Sawyer's Lake leisure complex, the new Promenade from Ebbsfleet to Gravesend, the expanded Canal Basin area, the new surrounding schools in the garden villages, etc, etc...
@@DrOORU gravesend is definitely not one of the best, the amount of crackheads in town centre that run up at you is insane, it's dirty, dingy. promenade is okay but honestly it kind of sucks in gravesend.
I remember it as a kid, the indoor market was my favourite part and the chippy restaurant by the market was always where we’d go on a Saturday, if my dad was flush. I’ve not been back to Gravesend in 20 years.
Went down there on a Saturday adventure from Bexleyheath about this time, I was 12.. me and my mate found a place with pinball machines in it along that thin road / hill facing the river.. Interesting place, lot of history... then later in life visited the Red Lion Pub which was music venue tucked well out of the way on an industrial road close to the river..
One of the Tilbury - Gravesend ferries, the MV Rose I think, was sold to the Caledonian Steam Packet Co, to become the MV Keppel. There were 3 or 4. One other was called the Edith I think. The Keppel replaced the DEPV ( Deisel Electric Paddle Vessel ) Talisman on the Largs - Millport Town ( Isle of Cumbrae ) foot passenger only run from about 1968 till the service ceased in the 1980's or even 90's. There was a car ferry to the island at Cumbrae slip anyway and this was continued. As the Keppel, she was only good for 8 knots and was not much use for anything else but she did short distance cruises too. The Talisman, of 1935, was unique because she had an electric motor with a paddle wheel at each end. There was no gear box and the clearance between the massive windings and stator was tiny- only about 1/8" or so. The torque was phenomenal as the motor got up from rest to over 40 rpm driving her at over 16 knots. She could stop within two ship lengths too. A vessel before her time.
You are sadly wrong, in the 1960's we had the evil deeds of Ian Brady and Myra Hindley - the huge coverage that got made parents reluctant to let their young kids out on their own or to play in the street. In the following decade, the 1970's, people were equally as cautious.
It's interesting to see the shut down Tattoo parlour; I bet there's a few popped up in recent times! Also it was the time of transition from the traditional traffic lights with the striped pole to the Mellor type with the white border, both types being on display in this film.

@@DrOORU Hello Lee, This question is a bit off topic but have you ever heard of a man named Patrick Mackay who lived on Frobisher Way, Gravesend in the 60s and 70s? What happens is that I am doing an investigation.
Northfleet comes under Gravesham, along with places like Higham, Meopham, Southfleet. Swanscombe comes under Dartford, along with places like Greenhithe, Stone, Wilmington etc.
Allow traffic to pass through Gravesend town again, with limited drop off and pick up plus strictly controlled speed limits, then you'll see this town come back to life.
Actually she was killed in the park by her husband just before filming apparently they had a row he whacked her and she never recovered he was not convicted.

Sorry to disappoint you Mr Geordie but it was supporters of the National Front who put those stickers on the bus stops. Coincidentally this week I came across a little leaflet someone gave me at that time when I was at school. It simply reads Join the National Party. I remember the fliers you refer to.

Please don’t blame poverty, social deprivation and crime on immigration. Blame it on governmental neglect, personal greed and the corruption which keeps ordinary poor in this country. The people who have immigrated into Britain are just like you or me….all they want is a better life for themselves and their families. They didn’t come here to add to urban decay, crime and poverty. Don’t blame those who can’t make a difference; blames those who could and should be making a difference. Blame the corrupt government who keeps the majority of the people of this country in little better than modern day serfdom. By believing in their racist and xenophobic lies that immigrants are the cause of this country’s woes you fall exactly into the trap they want you to. For, whilst you are busy ‘watching and blaming the immigrants’ , you aren’t ‘watching or blaming them’.
Cant knock the Sikhs, they've been part of the community for years, integrated and worked side by side with us. Not like other cultures who have turned up in recent years, make the place look like more of a shit hole, made areas become no goes after dark, put fuck all into the community and generally just take the piss.
