Welcome to the Sittingbourne Mill Website

View towards Technical block - 24th September 2008This site celebrates the history of Sittingbourne Mill and is a source of contact for anyone who has ever worked at Sittingbourne Mill.


The site is split into two sections. The first part is to celebrate the mill's history in words and pictures. In the Gallery section there are pictures of the mill from the 1890's to the closure in 2007. In the History section we look at 300 years of paper making in Sittingbourne.

The second section is for members only and anyone who has worked in the mill at any time can become a member. So far we have over 150 members! Once a member you can view what people are doing now in the Members Now Section. If you have yet to join please do, and if you have already joined and know of anyone else who used to work at the mill and would like to join please tell them about the site. Also the Jobs Section continues, if you hear of any suitable jobs then please fill out the online form.
