Windmill Hill is located on the highest ground near Gravesend town centre and provides an interesting vantage point from which to view the surrounding areas and the river activity. The top is the location of World War I Zeppelin bombsites, a small children's play area and a beacon commemorating the advance of the Spanish Armada, the original beacon was introduced by Richard II.
Nestling at the foot of the hill on its northern side is Windmill Gardens where you will find ornamental gardens and a bowling green and tennis courts. Located near the entrance to the gardens is a memorial commemorating the losses of two world wars.
