Abandoned Hoverport at Pegwell Bay, Ramsgate in Kent - 2020 

In about approximately 1991 there was a go-kart circuit opened up called Ramsgate kart circuit. Run by a friend of my dad and as a 7 year old boy absolutely loved it,I was there with my dad helping get the place set up ready to open. The hovercraft had long since gone and the main terminal building had been set on fire and smashed to pieces on more than one occasion. I remember we went looking for bits we could use and found tables and chairs plus all sorts of other things we repurposed to use at the facilities for the kart circuit.

Did this journey from ramsgate to calais on Hoverlloyd many times as a kid. Always got excited about going on the hovercraft :)

used to play down here mid to late 80's thanks for the ulpoad.

Went accross to France many times in the 70's from here. Used to live in Westgate and could hear them from time to time even over that distance. Had some really rough crossings and some really smooth ones too. It only took about 40mins as i recall to cross over to Calais. I remember crossing the sand banks out at sea on one occasion, the Goodwin sands i think it was. Could see masts and parts of wrecked ships sticking out of the sand. All History now, such a shame......

Excellent stuff, went down a couple of times last summer and it's fascinating to see parts that are left, i found a couple of old tile pieces, i didn't see the queueing numerals but it's only a decent 30 minute walk away from me.

fantastic video thank you

Interesting

You mention maintenance was still there until 1997? Not sure about that? The site was abandoned and derelict by 1992

Can you drive you car into that 🤷‍♂️
