Research concerning the future of Chatham Intra led by the
School of Architecture Design and Planning, University of Kent
In association with Medway Council and Historic England
Having graduated from the Kent School of Architecture in 2018, Molly worked in practice at KDP Architects for 2 years, where she was involved in a variety of residential, commercial and educational projects. Molly returned to the school in 2020 to progress her Architecture education and obtain the MArch Architecture qualification. Whilst studying for her MArch, Molly aspires to develop her architectural and presentation skills. After graduating, Molly plans to return to practice and start preparations for her Part 3 qualification to become a chartered Architect. Outside of her university studies, Molly’s interests include Ballet and the gym where she has taught herself self-discipline, dedication and positive wellbeing. Once Molly has graduated, she looks forward to the summer where she will celebrate with various trips in the UK and abroad.
The Tea Dance Emporium encourages social permeability amongst the community to address loneliness. The Chatham Intra Tales, inspired by Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, informed the proposals through the characters’ stories. Tea Dances are hosted for all generations whilst other interests are supported – florist, gardening, cooking, book clubs, film nights, yoga, community groups etc. The railway acted as a divide along the high street but now physical permeability through the arches re-establishes the two sections.
