Did a delivery out there last week, first-time visitor, last job of the day so took the obligatory stroll along the prom w/ bag of chips, and had to stifle the urge to ask locals what it was, knowing they were prolly sick of explaining and i could Google it when i got home.. YT's been recommending videos about it ever since! Also the Maunsell forts, Medway Queen etc., all fascinating local history, thanks for sharing! PS You have a beautiful town and i wouldn't change a thing! Lovely little quintessentially English resort, a real gem!
Would be so great to see the pier fully restored to how it originally was. Unfortunately I can't see it happening given the cost and especially as it is and has been maintained by councils do I have to say more!
