This gallery shows a selection of images of the immediate aftermath and of trees uprooted taken some weeks later near Queendown Warren. You can see the scale of the tree roots that have been ripped out of the ground compared to the person standing next to them which gives an idea of the ferocity of the hurricane force winds that hit Kent on 15/16 October 1987

Along with the rest of the South East and much of the whole UK Rainham had a heavy covering of snow in 2010. These are some photos taken in and around Rainham in the evening after one of the heavy snowfalls. The snow wasn't anywhere near as bad as 1987 when rather than 22cm we had 22 inches (60cm) fall over a day or two.
