Not Margate.

During the Napoleonic Wars, a gun position and military camp were at this site. (According to Wiki)

Not Broadstairs.

This place has undergone various changes over the years but much of the original remains.

I DJ'd there in the late 60s / early 70s.  The Nashville Teens were the band that night.

Yes, the entrance to a multi-function building.  The building still exists but not the entrance as shown in the photo.

Surely the entrance to a theatre, or perhaps a cinema.

(I wasn't upset, don't worry).
