The society is looking forward to belatedly celebrating their 50th anniversary (+1) this year by returning once more to the fantastic fully accessible venue to offer a great variety of interesting layouts, railway societies and a selection of quality trade support. Situated close to the A2, Ebbsfleet station and Bluewater, the venue has: Free on-Site parking, a regular bus service that stops outside, wheelchair access and the usual friendly atmosphere.
Members are happy to assist those who need assistance and answer enquiries about the Show or Society. Children (Under 16) accompanied by an adult will continue to join us for FREE. That means one adult can bring several children with them and only pay five pounds!
Subject to prevailing conditions, hope to offer an extensive range of hot and cold food and refreshments. Plus on Sunday we will aim to serve roast dinners with all the trimmings between 12-2pm; Beef, Turkey plus a vegetarian option.
How to find Northfleet School For Girls;
Ebbsfleet railway station is only 17 minutes from Central London, 10 minutes from Stratford International and Gravesend railway station is 11 minutes from Dartford. Northfleet School for Girls is about 2-3 minutes drive from the Northfleet turn-Off from the A2.
Bus routes 481 & 483 serve Gravesend town centre, Ebbsfleet station and Bluewater shopping centre and stop outside the school on both days. Other regular bus services stop near to Northfleet School for Girls. As last year, anyone who presents their Arriva bus ticket to the pay desk can obtain a free tea/coffee/cold drink.
