Enabling you to share your stories of the towns and people of coastal Kent in the First World War.

Ashford received its tank as recognition for the fund raising by the town throughout the War. One example is this Kent Flag Day concert held in the High Street in 1915. Funds raised supported local hospitals and prisoners of war.
