On Saturday 20th April, Joan Ruddock opened the Naval Dockyards Society Conference at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, where the society was celebrating “500 years of Deptford and Woolwich Royal Dockyards”. Deptford Dockyard was given its Royal Charter by Henry VIII in 1513.

Members of the Lenox Project team also attended and were pleased by the support they received from other attendees. You can read Joan’s speech, in which she talks about Convoys Wharf and her backing and patronage of Build The Lenox, in full on her website.
