Margate Cliff Railway - a photo on Flickriver

Margate Cliff Railway

            There used to be a tiny funicular railway at Cliftonville, which travelled around 60ft (was this the shortest in the UK?) down to the lido. It opened in 1913 and was presumably a victim of the January 1978 storm, which saw the demise of both Margate Pier and the lido. 29 July 1972

Scanned from a Kodachrome slide taken by the late Lyndon Rowe, and now in my collection
