Places Tourist Might Miss on Their Visit to Margate, Kent, England?
The Lighter Side of Margate; usually when people think of Margate they think of a typical British town seaside resort and of Dreamland. Dreamland is still undergoing renovation, and there is little doubt that when it does reopen it’s going to be the major tourist attraction that in its heyday it once was.
We only made a flying visit to Margate so didn’t have the time to soak up the traditional side of such a place, although we did wander along the tourist town seaside resort pass all the restaurants, pubs and cafes looking for somewhere to have an evening meal; in the end settling on the Brewers Fayre restaurant close to the train station.
Tacked onto the end of our French holiday, and before finally making our way home, we made an overnight stop at Margate specifically to see the marvel of the Shell Grotto (made with 4.6 million sea shells); part of its fascination being who, why and when the grotto was built being a complete mystery to the experts.
We booked in at the Smiths Court Hotel, 21-27 Eastern Esplanade, Cliftonville; located just a short distance from the main sea front, in a quieter area of Margate but still with rooms with a sea view. The hotel was excellent, but what caught my attention was ‘The Blues Grill, at The Malvern Hotel just two doors up which had an unusual and fascinating frontage featuring the Blues Brothers.
The Shell Grotto, which we visited at 10:00 sharp the following morning, when it opened, was well worth the visit; such an unusual curiosity. Right opposite the Shell Grotto is R.G. Scott, Furniture Mart, the most fascinating reclamation yard we’ve ever seen; and consequently (after spending an hour there) we came away with a bell which we subsequently fitted to the outside of our conservatory and a grand 8 foot high Victorian style street lamp with three lamp holders wired for electrics; which we shall secure to the corner of our conservatory decking and get it wired into the mains and controlled from a switch in the conservatory itself.
The other place my wife specifically wanted to visit while we were in Margate was the famous ‘Cup Cake Café’; so before continuing our journey (after our visit to the Shell Grotto) we stopped there for a rest bite and took in the delights of their cupcakes washed down with a nice hot drink.
And finally, after leaving Margate and making our journey home to Bristol we made a pit stop at Pegwell Bay in Ramsgate, Kent, England (just a few miles from Margate) for the Viking ship that my son specifically wanted to see (The Hugin), a replica of a Viking longship built by Denmark in 1949 as a gift from the Danish government to Kent to mark the 1500th hundred year anniversary of when the Jutes settled in Kent as part of the Anglo-Saxon invasion of Britain in the 5th century.
So when visiting Margate there are more things to see than just sand, sea and tourists shops, amusement arcades and cafes and restaurants along the sea front.

Ramsgate
TSR18 Museums and grant to the East Kent Maritime Trust
(Saving £100,000)
The Council currently grant aids the East Kent Maritime Trust, who provide museum services and supervise collections at Margate and Ramsgate. Sadly the council grant of around £100,000 a year supports services that are used by only around 10,000 visitors each year -- equating to a subsidy of around £10 per visitor. This is not sustainable in the current financial climate and the Cabinet believes thatthis grant must cease in 2008/09. The Council will discuss with the Trust the best way forward to achieving the following objectives:-
A thorough review of the current museum exhibits, with the aim of establishing a series of high-quality themed exhibitions which can be displayed at various venues across the district and, possibly, county.
The presentation of a core, static museum display on the ground floor of Albion House, Ramsgate -- in rooms not required for civic accommodation
The release of accommodation currently occupied at both Ramsgate and Margate for potential alternative commercial or community
As part of this change programme, the Council is willing to fund a post for two years to support the reconfiguration of the Museum collections.

Broadstairs
Broadstairs is a coastal town on the Isle of Thanet in East Kent, England, 76 miles (122 km) east of London with a population of about 22,000. Situated between Margate and Ramsgate, it is one of the seaside resorts on the Isle of Thanet, known as the Jewel in Thanet's crown. The town's crest motto is Stella Maris - Star of the Sea. As a civil parish, it includes the St. Peter's area and is known as Broadstairs and St. Peters. This was derived from the broad stairs carved in the chalk cliff, that led from the sands to the 12th century shrine of St Mary situated above the cliffs.[1]
The town spreads from Poorhole Lane in the west (named from the mass graves dating from the Black Death) to Kingsgate in the north (named after the landing of King Charles II in 1683) and to Dumpton in the south (named after the yeoman Dudeman who farmed there in the 13th century). Reading or Redyng Street was established by Flemish refugees in the 1600s.As a seaside resort, the economy is mainly based around tourism; there are hotels and guest houses on and near the seafront, to accommodate the influx of all year round visitors. Although the number of hotels in recent years has declined because of the high land redevelopment values this has resulted in an improvement in quality of the existing premises. The High Street has a wide variety of independent shops and services, and there are a small number of factories mainly situated on the small industrial estates on the town's borders. The elderly population (many retire to the seaside) has led to many health and social care jobs at local care homes. As of the 2001 UK census, 1.8% of the population resided in a medical or care establishment, compared with the national average of only 0.8%.[7] Many jobs in education are provided by the town's relatively high number of schools and colleges.
[edit] Employment
As of the 2001 census, the economic activity of residents aged 1674 was 34.1% in full-time employment, 12.8% in part-time employment, 10.0% self-employed, 2.9% unemployed, 2.3% students with jobs, 4.1% students without jobs, 20.0% retired, 6.5% looking after home or family, 4.9% permanently sick or disabled and 2.4% economically inactive for other reasons. The percentage of retired people was significantly higher than the national figure of 14%. The percentage of unemployed people was low compared with the national rate of 3.4% and the district rate of 4.4%. 12% of residents aged 1674 had a higher education qualification or the equivalent, compared with 20% nationwide. The Office for National Statistics estimated that during the period of April 2001 to March 2002, the average gross weekly income of households was £522 (£27,219 per year).[7]
The industry of employment of residents, at the 2001 census, was 15% retail, 14% health and social work, 13% manufacturing, 13% education, 10% real estate, 8% construction, 7% transport and communications, 6% public administration, 5% hotels and restaurants, 3% finance, 1% agriculture and 5% other community, social or personal services. Compared with national figures, there was a relatively high number of workers in the education and health/social care industries and a relatively low number in finance and real estate.[7] Many residents commute to work outside the town; as of the 2001 census, the town had 9,842 employed residents, but there were only 9,049 jobs within the town.[7]

Dover
Dover (/ˈdoʊvər/; French: Douvres) is a town and major ferry port in the home county of Kent, in South East England. It faces France across the narrowest part of the English Channel, and lies south-east of Canterbury; east of Kent's administrative capital Maidstone; and north-east along the coastline from Dungeness and Hastings. The town is the administrative centre of the Dover District and home of the Dover Calais ferry through the Port of Dover. The surrounding chalk cliffs have become known as the White Cliffs of Dover, and the narrow sea passage nearby – the Strait of Dover. Its strategic position has been evident throughout its history: archaeological finds have revealed that the area has always been a focus for peoples entering and leaving Britain. The name of the town derives from the name of the river that flows through it, the River Dour. The town has been inhabited since the Stone Age according to archaeological finds, and Dover is one of only a few places in Britain – London, Edinburgh, and Cornwall being other examples – to have a corresponding name in the French language, Douvres.

Margate is a seaside town in the district of Thanet in Kent, England. It lies 38.1 miles east-north-east of Maidstone, on the coast along the North Foreland and contains the areas of Cliftonville, Garlinge, Palm Bay and Westbrook.
For at least 250 years, Margate has been a leading seaside resort in the UK, drawing Londoners to its beaches, Margate Sands. The bathing machines in use at Margate were described in 1805 as four-wheeled carriages, covered with canvas, and having at one end of them an umbrella of the same materials which is let down to the surface of the water, so that the bather descending from the machine by a few steps is concealed from the public view, whereby the most refined female is enabled to enjoy the advantages of the sea with the strictest delicacy.
The Dreamland Amusement Park (featured in The Jolly Boys' Outing extended episode of the television series Only Fools and Horses) is situated in the centre of Margate. It reopened in 2015, having been closed since 2006 following a lengthy campaign by the group Save Dreamland Campaign. The Scenic Railway roller coaster at Dreamland, which opened in 1920, is Grade II* Listed and the second oldest in the world, was severely damaged in a fire on 7 April 2008 but has now been fully restored and reopened to the public in October 2015. Today the Dreamland roller coaster is one of only two early-20th century scenic railways still remaining in the UK; the only other surviving UK scenic railway is in Great Yarmouth and was built in 1932. The Margate roller coaster is an ACE Coaster Classic. Cliftonville, next to Margate, has a classic British Arnold Palmer seaside mini golf course.
There are two notable theatres, the Theatre Royal in Addington Street – the second oldest theatre in the country – and the Tom Thumb Theatre, the second smallest in the country, in addition to the Winter Gardens. The Theatre Royal was built in 1787, burned down in 1829 and was remodelled in 1879 giving Margate more national publicity. The exterior is largely from the 19th century.[15] From 1885 to 1899 actor-manager Sarah Thorne ran a school for acting at the Theatre Royal which is widely regarded as Britain's first formal drama school. Actors who received their initial theatrical training there include Harley Granville-Barker, Evelyn Millard, Louis Calvert, George Thorne, Janet Achurch, Adelaide Neilson and Irene and Violet Vanbrugh, among others. An annual jazz festival takes place on a weekend in June.
Margate Museum in Market Place explores the town's seaside heritage in a range of exhibits and displays, and is now opened at weekends by a team of volunteers. First discovered in 1798, the Margate Caves (also known as the Vortigern Caves) are situated at the bottom of Northdown Road. They are currently closed to the public.
The Shell Grotto, which has walls and roof covered in elaborate decorations of over four million shells covering 2,000 square feet (190 m2) in complex patterns, was rediscovered in 1835, but is of unknown age and origin. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building. There is a 16th-century 2-storey timber-framed Tudor house built on a flint plinth in King Street. Margate's Jubilee Clock Tower was built to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887, although not completed until 1889. It had a Time Ball mechanism, mounted on a mast atop the tower, which was raised a few minutes before 1pm each day and dropped at precisely 1pm, thereby allowing residents, visitors and ships to know the exact time. This was, of course, in the days before wireless transmission of time signals.
