Summary

Second World War Emergency Feeding Centre at Northcourt School off Dickens Road, Denton near Gravesend. This designation originated in March 1941. The then recently constructed school was provided with pre-positioned boilers, crockery and cutlery to provide cooking and food dispensing facilities for any people who were made homeless or who were without a kitchen as a result of damage from an air raid. The part of the premises so used is not known. This function probably continued until 1945. The school still exists.
