Yours John Walker, its known as Starvation point a memorial to those who lost their lives at sea. Was also a place where out of work seaman would congregate for work.
This was another clue on a Treasure trail I did.

Looks a bit out of place with those modern houses.

Medway area?

I used to ring church bells at the nearby All Saints' Frindsbury, and still ring handbells in the church hall, just along the road.

It wouldn't be a guess for me, at times I've driven past it daily and I've photographed it.  Details will follow a successful guess.
