  • King's Church in Chatham is a church in use by a Evangelical congregation. The building was originally built as Saint Andrew's Presbyterian Church and was bought by the Rochester Christian Fellowship in 1984. This building was dedicated on May 18, 1904, but is was not in use anymore since 1975, and could be re-opened after serious restoration and renovation works in 1988. The church was renamed 'King's Church Medway'.
  • In the Presbyterian Church stood a pipe organ from 1910, built by Morgan & Smith, with twenty stops. This organ was partially demolished and stored in 1975. When the renovation works started in 1986 the organ case and prospect pipes were also removed. In the current building no pipe organ is in use anymore.
