The Seaside Heritage Network collaborated with Dan Thompson, award-winning artist, writer, speaker, and Director of Marine Studios, for a marvellous Margate mooch which will uncover the resort's hidden stories. 

Margate only exists to take money from Londoners, so it is constantly rewriting its story, and that means that Margate doesn't tell its real story - which we uncovered on this walk. Starting at Maxwell Fry's station, we explored a mysterious prehistoric landscape, the Lion Queen of England, lost rivers, Diplock's Brutal tower block, an overlooked Terry Farrell gem, and TS Eliot's breakdown on Margate Sands.   

We ended at Marine Studios with a chance to view an unrivalled collection of Margate tourist guides and ephemera. Here are just some of the highlights of the tour.
