Both my sons went there, and the youngest left in 2018 so it was a bit familiar!
I saw this lovely wall plate on the side of a building, nice bit of detail.  What building and where?

Blimey, that brought back some memories - used to walk through that entrance every school day for 5 years....

Is that the old garage on the 'top road' A2 opposite where Tesco is now?  Rainham Mark.  Next to the old Belisha Beacon.

Tidal or non-tidal Medway?  Are those distinctive oriel windows still visible?
