Looking west along the A2, High Street near its junction with Meresborough Road (left) and Otterham Quay Lane (right). The name of the pub reflects the fact that those born east of the river Medway are known as Men (or Maids) of Kent, whereas those from west of the river are Kentish Men (or Maids). Rainham has grown in all directions and is prime commuter belt for London.
