Pictures of Margate in 1820



Some time ago I published a cheap reprint of W C Oulton’s book, picture of Margate and its Vicinity, click on the link for the book http://www.michaelsbookshop.com/catalogue/picture_of_margate_and_its_vicinity.htm

Anyway last week I bought some of the pictures from it that that have been coloured and as part of my interest in Margate this week here they are, click on them to enlarge them.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
