News, Local history and Thanet issues from Michael's Bookshop in Ramsgate see www.michaelsbookshop.com I publish over 200 books about the history of this area click here to look at them.
This is a fairly rough copy of my 1906 map of Thanet that various people have asked me to make available. I have dated it based on the pavilion built in 1906 being shown and the lift opened in 1908 not being shown.
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.
Nice one well done that man
ReplyDeleteI can see my house but can't see an airport anywhere. I presume that means the airport will have to move as my house was here years before they built it!
ReplyDeleteI can see the cliffs but can't see my house anywhere. I presume that means the house will have to move as the seagulls were here years before they built it!
