Rope has been made at Chatham Dockyard for over 400 years, miles upon miles of rope that has rigged the mightiest vessels ever to take to the sea, including Nelson’s VICTORY.
Today Chatham is the only one of the original four Royal Navy Ropeyards to remain in operation.
You can witness the craft of ropemaking for yourself during our live demonstrations by the Master Ropemakers.
