Click to enlarge, pictures of Margate, Ramsgate and Broadstairs, possible ramble










King Street Margate


 Cobbs Brewery Margate

I think this one is Margate, Its in the Mick Twyman collection but has no file label. from the look of the shipping I would guess around 1830

This Broadstairs one looks to be from the first half of the 1900s

Once again pictures from the Tom Stokes and Mick Twyman collections. I have been working on getting the first 150 or so from the Tom Stokes Ramsgate collection into book form. there were a few caption errors which had to be removed using AI as the captions are embedded in the photos. 

Writing this blog and working in Ramsgate at Michaels Bookshop I feel there should be a lot of potential for using artificial intelligence however removing these captions or part of these captions without marking the picture is the first time I have found it really useful.

Post a Comment

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.
