EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Margate's vibrant seaside resort in the late 19th century. The focal point is the magnificent Jetty Extension, a hexagonal structure that was added to the original pier in 1875-76. Built by Eugenius Birch between 1853 and 1856, this extension became an iconic symbol of Victorian beachside architecture. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with holidaymakers enjoying their summer break on Margate's sunny South Coast. Families can be seen strolling along the sandy beach, while others gather on the jetty to take in panoramic views of the English Channel. Colorful parasols dotting the shoreline add a touch of elegance and charm to this picturesque setting. As crowds flock to this popular destination, one cannot help but notice flags fluttering in the breeze, adding a festive atmosphere to this idyllic coastal retreat. The photo perfectly encapsulates an era when seaside resorts were at their peak, offering endless amusements for visitors seeking relaxation and entertainment. Although time has passed since this photograph was taken by an unknown English photographer from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it serves as a nostalgic reminder of Margate's rich history. Sadly, progress led to its demolition in the 1970s; however, through images like these, we can still appreciate its grandeur and significance within British seaside culture.
