Hi Lis
Interested in your post for two reasons! One I have Variegate Porphyria, which is not that common so I'm always interested in it, and two I live just outside of Sittingbourne! I concur with the comments that Keycol was primarily an isolation hospital, but would be interested to find out the place of death. However there was a mental institution at Chartham near Canterbury and that fell under the Bridge registration district; I have a GG Aunt that died there in 1918
Cheers
Alex
