'Whitstable is a stirring little town, with strong business
proclivities, and a history stretching far back into the remote
past.' So wrote a Kentish Gazette correspondent in 1873, although
he could have been describing the north Kent seaside town today.
Over the years, the lives of townspeople have been sustained by sea
salt production, diving, smuggling, shipbuilding and fishing, along
with copperas mining and tourism. In this pocket-sized guide,
author Kerry Mayo takes readers on a fascinating tour around
Whitstable's streets and buildings, showing how its famous
landmarks used to look and how they have changed over the years, as
well as exploring some of its lesser-known sights and hidden
corners. With the help of a handy location map, readers are invited
to discover for themselves the history and the changing face of the
town.
