Shipwrights in Pembroke Dock/Sheerness 1850's

[Medici47]

My family research shows several family members living in Rosemarket, Pembrokeshire in the mid 19th century and were shipwrights working in Pembroke Docks.  Some then moved to Sheerness, Kent, to work in the dockyards there.  Does anyone know why they would have moved specifically to Sheerness, some distance away, or where I could find some information regarding this?

Both were naval dockyards, I think, so moving workers around according to need would have been quite usual.
