I’m impressed you walked it; last time I returned I cycled it to Margate & rewarded by the sea-filled pool, braved fish’n’ chips from being snatched by fearsome herring gulls & a drank a pint in TS Eliot’s seaside shelter.

I was a student at UKC 1972/5 & first had lodgings in Doris Villa, Herne Bay, then Whitstable. I must have remembered the pier intact but I can’t recall walking its length oddly. Having walked Southend pier (catching the little train back) it’s odd to imagine just how long it must have been. I’ve harboured fondness for decaying seaside towns ever since tho’ many are reviving somewhat thro’ creative arts, & perhaps, our island psyche of being drawn to the edges of the sea.
