  • Le PS Medway Queen est un ancien bateau à roues à aubes pour un service de ferry sur la rivière Medway et dans l'estuaire de la Tamise de 1924 à 1964. Sauvé de la démolition, il est d'abord utilisé comme boîte de nuit à la Marina de l'Île de Wight avant d'être racheté définitivement, en 1985, par la Medway Queen Preservation Society en vue de sa préservation. Ce bâtiment est inscrit au registre du National Historic Ships depuis 1993 et il est aussi l'un des nombreux bateaux de la National Historic Fleet. (fr)
