    Hiking

    The Machine Shop is a former dry dock slip-cover originally built in the mid 1840s by Fox Henderson & Co. for the Woolwich Dockyard and is believed to be the earliest surviving metal-framed slipcover in existence. Following the dockyard's closure in 1865, it was deconstructed and rebuilt at Chatham where it came to be used as a machine shop
