EDITORS COMMENTS
Westonville, Margate: Two Smart Gents on the Promenade (1920s) This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as two smartly dressed gentlemen take a leisurely stroll along the Westonville Promenade in Margate, Kent, during the 1920s. The seaside resort town was a popular destination for the well-to-do, offering a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The chap on the left, with his well-tailored suit, polished shoes, and stylish hat, is likely a wealthy farmer or landowner from the surrounding countryside, taking a well-deserved break from his duties. His companion, the man on the right, dressed less formally but still impeccably turned out, is perhaps his favourite, yet somewhat wayward nephew. As they walk along the seafront, the pair engage in a deep conversation, their heads close together, their eyes focused intently on each other. The ornate pavilion in the background, with its intricate detailing and grandeur, serves as a reminder of the opulence and elegance of the era. The gentlemen's caps shield them from the sun, casting intriguing shadows on their faces, while the sea stretches out before them, its calming waters reflecting the clear blue sky above. The promenade, with its neatly trimmed hedges and meticulously maintained gardens, adds to the idyllic scene, creating a sense of tranquility and relaxation. This photograph, with its timeless charm and evocative atmosphere, transports us back to a bygone age, inviting us to imagine the stories and secrets that unfolded on the Westonville Promenade during the golden age of the British seaside resort.
