What's Snodland famous for?
Snodland is famous for its contribution to industrial history, deeply rooted in lime-working and paper-making. The 19th century was a significant period for the town, as the railway arrival triggered a substantial increase in paper production. Many will know Snodland for its lime which was used in the construction of iconic London bridges, such as Waterloo Bridge. It's no less notable for its Roman heritage; a potential Roman crossing over the River Medway and the site of a partially excavated Roman villa serve as reminders of its historical significance.
