St George?s Church, Gravesend
Gravesend has been subject to several disastrous fires in its history. On 24th August, 1727 one such blaze swept through the High Street burning down 110 homes and engulfing the church. The new church, St George’s was built as one of the fifty new churches to be built out of dues on coal coming into the Port of London. The number of churches actually built was considerer ably less than fifty, (closer to about fifteen), but St. George's was one of the fortunate applicants. Charles Sloane, a local architect, built the church with the foundation stone being laid by Sir Roger Meredith M.P. in June 1731 and the new building was completed in 1732. The tower is part of the original building of 1732. Around the string-course above the bell-ringing chamber there is a Latin inscription affirming "This same building being destroyed by disastrous fire King George II most generously ordered to be rebuilt by Act of Parliament". In front of the church is the famous Pocahontas statue.
