A 19th century jetty on the northern edge of Nor Marsh (an island in the Medway) can be seen on aerial photographs taken in 1946. The jetty was built at a date between 1896 and 1909 parallel with the coast and was 187m long and up to 19m wide. A second jetty further west was also in place at the same date. This was positioned at right angles to the coast and measured approximately 178m by 1.5m. No trace was seen on aerial photographs. By 1909 earth (or similar) had also been dumped along the northern edge of Nor Marsh. This had filled the delph and other water channels along the northern edge of the island. A building had also been erected on this spoil south of the jetty. The building had gone by 1946 but a depression marking its location was still visible at that date. It seems likely that the jetty was built to allow the dumping to take place of this material which was the result of dredging the river. There are three tracks defined by wheel ruts that lead from the western end of the jetty and head towards the south western end of the island. They stop short of the group of buildings known as Nor House. Aerial photographs taken in 2007 show the remains of some of the piles for the main jetty can still just be seen above the mud and the remains of the cart tracks. These features were mapped from aerial photographs as part of the English Heritage: Hoo Peninsula Landscape Project.
