It’s not the ending of the British holiday thats ended places such as Cliftonville … its Millenial and Gen Z Chav culture, the me me me Tik Tok generation and above all immigration. Far from integrating, Cliftonville has become a ghetto of run down slums.

Lovely....well done!

I think an aquaintance of mine, Martin Casemore lives there. Heis a fantastic bird photographer, and could often be found at the old lighthouse gardens at dungoness.

I'd often see Peter Cushing riding his bike or having a cuppa in the Tudor Tea Rooms .

So many memories at Dymchurch from my childhood with my family

I visited this place a couple of weeks ago for the first time. Nice little pool go paddling although the rocks hurt your feet! I’m sure it’s deep enough to swim in some parts but the depth varies so maybe not very safe to do so. Love the old photos. I wish we could go back. This world is now lost. Lovely video though.

We go twice a year .I got lost there when I was 5 in the 60s. I was hysterical. My sister was cool as cucumber 😂 .love Dymchurch .we drive from Wales to stay for 8 days spring & late summer . That was a nice clip ❤

I like to see the "then" and "now" differences. It's sad that the railway station closed and is now in a state of decay. That's progress. Even the term "railway station" is slowly giving way to the American "train station". Oh well...

Used to go in the van with my Dad, during school holidays, to Lydd in the 1970's, from Sandwich. Good to see it again, we used to go to a small industrial unit that was near the church, I suppose that's long gone. Another great video.

Went to the disco a few times over the years though it was late 70’s early 80’s. Used to fish at Fordwich so would pop into the village, it actually still had shops. Drank in the Welsh Harp and Swan a few times. Fished the wider pool and river at a time when basically anyone could.

My grandparents retired to Mitchum Rd and are buried at St Peter and St Paul churchyard. I have lots of Memories of Dymchurch in 60s

Pipers caravan site, spent my summers there. 1963 - 1973.

Love these videos of Herne, brings me back to my childhood living in the Upper Red pub. Do you know what the pub is used for now? I heard its apartments, but have been unable to confirm that. We moved over to Ireland in 2004, I must come back for a visit with my wife and little girl some day.

Can remember going all the way out to the end of the pier and crabbing in the tidal pool. My grandparents lived in Herne Bay and used to go there on the train or bus from Whitstable.

I grew up in the pub The Upper Red Lion during the 90s and early 00s, I was only a child back then. my Dad was landlord for about 8 years. I still miss living there and the village. thanks for this video

Romney Hythe and Dymchurch railway . Was a miniature rail line that actually carried passengers. One of the “Bulldog Drummond” stories by Sapper is set in the bay with Irma Peterson (villain) living in a house out on the edge of Romney Marsh where her twinkling house lights gave away her presence Road the railway myself in 1952

😎Yes all my holidays from1966 still go now.

Brings back so many memories. Used To go on school journey at St Mary's Bay camp. Remember walking to St Mary in the Marsh Church.

Went to the Butlins Holiday Hotel about the 90's. All the way driving from Manchester, the best time ever, my four year old son got personal football training from Southampton ex player Bobby Stokes, he liked a drink but didn't let it spoil his giving training to the kids, was a great guy, My young daughter became ButlinsToast of Cliftonville (we used the toast of the breakfast and pinned it to her dress 😀) thank you for bringing back a great memory. 👍

I went to boarding school in Folkestone… looking at this video it’s actually made me realise that I miss it…I grew up there and although I’m not from Folkestone it’s probably the closest thing I have to a home town. The postcard of the Sealink ferry brought back all the memories of catching the ferry to go back home for school holidays…

Wonderful piece of work. The varied architectural styles in Ramsgate meld well together and those who are visiting Ramsgate would do well to go on the costumed walks in the summer months. Also fab for residents!! Contact the local tourist office for details of what's on in Thanet. Recommend the Tunnels as a fascinating insight into how Ramsgate prepared for WW2.

Lovely collection. Lots uniformed men in the 1910 pictures.

Another of your delightful videos. A real treat. Thank you.

Nicely put together I've always liked Hythe .I've never lived there but have worked there several times.

❤ BRILLIANT THANKS

Would be great if weed cleaned up so less slippery. I wonder what fish and inverts livevin the pool as semi protected from waves..

I love Hythe 😀 Thank you for sharing.

I remember having Pate de Campagne and white wine 50 years ago outside at the Butt of Sherry!

Excellent. Thanks for sharing.

Its was such a great place. Even in the mid eighties it was still good. Coach loads of visitors from the midlands use to use all the hotels along the eastern esplanade . I use to stay in Cornwall gardens just up from the Walpole bay hotel. Always a hive of entertainment along the lido. Sad to see how it has declined. Great video though.

Love Folkestone, absolute disgrace the sandles property developer has been allowed to building those awful apartments on the beach!

I spent most summers in the 70s and 80's on my parent's boat in Ramsgate Harbour. Wonderful days spent in the harbour, on the beach, in Pleasurama (if we had any money) and nights up the Royal Temple. It will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for this.

Excellent, maybe a longer video of the Griffin's Head with their car meet one day 🤔

Absolutely loved this. Lived in Canterbury all my life. So good to see memories of my past.

My dad lived in 8 bells ,sea wall during the 60s . I lived in harbour street a few years ago

I was born in Ramsgate in 1939, went to Priory Road infants school, Christ Church junior school and Clarendon House grammar school. Did my nursing training from 1957 - 1961 in Ramsgate and Margate hospitals. We lived in a 12 roomed hpuse, originally a farm house I think, at 7 Albert Street, now a block of flats! I remember the old fish market and so many of the scenes shewn especially the huge amount of visitors in summer. Many thanks for such a great recording, so grateful to you Jeremy.

Another fascinating look at Kent. It evoked so many wonderful memories for me. Thank you.

Yes you are my friends ❤

Can you use a kayak here ?

You mixed up the old water mill opposite the cemetary (old photo) with the paper mill.

My Grandmother who died in Herne Bay at yhe age of 98 ,used to travel with her parents and 6 siblings from Gillingham on the train for l day a year thier holiday back in the early 1900s so good to see what it looked like then

Village s round by us

Be great if the council could put margate back to the late 70,s early eighties as it was so good. Get rid of all the graffiti and make margate the typical old seaside town again.

Lovely video

Born in Canterbury but moved away in 1987, great to see the old Canterbury as it was. Totally different now sadly and for the worse

Being a resident of Ramsgate since 1987 a fabulous look around town, very well done interspersed with the old postcards

I was born in Margate my grand parents had a restaurant along Marine Terrace a 100 yards from Dreamland. I grew up in California but enjoyed our trips to Margate/Cliftonville. Thanks.

Fantastic work. Thank you.

Hi Jeremy; At 2:55, in the postcard dated 1906, but probably taken around 1911/12, the small boy with the curly blond hair on the left was my grandfather, Samuel Harbour. He was born in 1909 in the Endeavour public house seen on the right in the postcard at 2:36. Somewhere, I have a list of the other people in the image, identified by my great-uncle, if this would be of interest.

Excellent! Thank you
