It is Deal from the pier, with horse & carts ambling along the seafront.

watch the viewing figures gary, 140 in the first 8 hours here!!
non members i.e. people who look in every now and again like this type of thread, usually when they are having a coffee break.
hopefully kath hollingsbee will add some old photos here when she is fully recovered from her surgery.

# 1 has not only a different view but must be taken from an older pier. Was the new pier built in the same place as the old one ? does anyone know.

Do you think people would object if steam was brought back to Dover Seafront?
