Story
This project is in two parts
The first one is to raise funds to place a bronze plaque on the house of Tony Larkin to commemorate this great man who has done so much and for so many people from Gravesham. This will cost around £750
The second one might require a little more patience!
To create a bronze sculpture of Tony seated at a bench looking towards the statue of General Gordon in the Gordon Pleasure Grounds at Gravesend Promenade. This will cost around £60,000

I was lucky to be a friend of Tony Larkin and shared with him a passion for local history. He was an exceptional man and inspired me to research and publish small booklets mainly commemorating those who died serving their country from the Borough of Gravesham.
