It’s Medway as you’ve never seen it before.

Amateur photographer Darrell Mills has sparked considerable interest with his aerial shots of remote parts of the Hoo Peninsula.

His film, shot using a drone, shows a bird’s-eye view of Hoo Marina, Fort Hoo and Fort Darnet. It has been watched by more than 15,000 people.

Mr Mills, 38, decided to film on the peninsula after visiting Shornemead Fort in Shorne.

The dad-of-four, who works in marketing, said: “I am just a amateur photographer and videographer at the moment but I hope to become professional and take it up full time.

“I did some filming at Shorne Mead Fort and I wanted to go and see some other forts in the area.

“I never expected such a response. My last big video was the Gravesend Riverside Flight video and that reached 4,000 views.

“To me that was fantastic, but 15,000 views is just crazy.

“A lot of people that I spoke to in Hoo didn’t know the fort was there.

“I like to go to places that are relatively unknown and not easy to get to.

“Having a drone I can go to places other people cannot and put it out there on the internet for people to see.”

He said there were some regulations he has to follow when using the drone such as not using it within 50 metres of houses and on private property.

Fort Hoo, like Fort Darnet in Gillingham, was built in response to the 1859 Royal Commission report on the defence of the United Kingdom.

The report was commissioned after an invasion scare caused by the strengthening of the French navy.

Mr Mills said it took him about an hour to film and around a day to edit the three-and-a-half minute video.

He is now asking for people to suggest ideas of where he should film next.

“There’s a quarry in Halling that people have suggested,” he said. “I’m trying to get permission to go down there and take off with the drone.”
