Rainham

Rainham is a part of the Medway Towns urban sprawl its population usually included under Gillingham in the unitary authority of Medway, in South East England, as well as part of the ceremonial county of Kent. Historically, Rainham was a different village up until, in 1928, it was contributed to the Metropolitan District of Gillingham, which was originally developed in 1903 and was grouped into the latter's built-up area in evaluation of the 2011 census by the Office for National Statistics. It entered into the Medway authority when Gillingham was included with the various other communities to develop Medway Unitary Authority in 1998. It has its own recreation as well as retail center and also unlike Gillingham has a traditional area broadly to the south and also which given that the late 20th century is mostly household real estate. Rainham was originally a straight settlement along the main road. The population in 1801 was 422; 2 centuries later it is well over six thousand. Part of the factor for this big growth can be credited to the train. When the railway came in 1858 it brought a nearly prompt increase in the size of the village; when the Chatham Main Line was amazed in 1959, as with all the places offered by it, town development began again. Among the results was the structure of Parkwood estate.
