Kingsnorth Airship Station played a vital role during World War I, developing airships which successfully protected the fleet from submarine attack. It was the proud boast of the Airship Service that no vessels accompanied by one of their airships were lost to submarines. This book tells the story of Kingsnorth, exploring the development of the station, the challenges faced and overcame, the people who contributed to the station’s success, and how the station and its legacy have changed the local area. Contemporary accounts and pictures bring this story to life, whether for the local historian, military enthusiast, or a relative linked with Kingsnorth.
