Brompton Barracks
Records show that there has been a military base on the high ground above Chatham since at least 1708, built to defend Chatham Dockyard. Brompton Barracks forms the centrepiece of the Brompton Lines Conservation Area, an area designated in 1982 acknowledging the importance of the Chatham Dockyard as having particularly well-preserved dockyard defences.
