Radnor Cliff

The bandstand at Folkestone One of the things that was most missed over the last two years was live music. This was the Sevenoaks & Tonbridge Concert Band playing on the bandstand at Folkestone on a Sunday afternoon in August.

Folkestone had been a resort for the wealthy since Victorian times with large villas and hotels being built to take advantage of the magnificent sea views. People promenaded and took the sea air on The Leas but a bandstand was missing. However, it took over 40 years to agree the funding for building a bandstand. Many people objected to the idea complaining that it would ruin the views of the sea. The Borough Council eventually decided to levy a one penny rate which also caused much anger as working class residents were barred from The Leas and would never be able to enjoy what they had helped pay for.

Despite the complaints, building started in 1894, with the cast iron structure being made at the Elmbank Foundry in Glasgow. It opened in 1895. By 2006 the bandstand had deteriorated substantially but with funding from Shepway District Council and Kent County Council, it has now been totally rebuilt.

Radnor Cliff is a prominent geological feature located in the town of Folkestone, Kent, England. It is a steep and rugged cliff face that stretches for approximately one kilometer along the eastern edge of the town. The cliff is made up of layers of chalk and is part of the larger geological formation known as the White Cliffs of Dover.

The cliff is characterized by its impressive height, reaching up to 30 meters in some areas, and its distinctive white color, which is a result of the chalk composition. It is a popular tourist attraction, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the English Channel and the French coastline on clear days.

Radnor Cliff is also known for its historical significance. During World War II, it served as a key defensive position for the British army, with various military installations and fortifications strategically placed along its edge. Today, remnants of these wartime structures can still be seen, adding to the charm and historical appeal of the area.

The cliff is easily accessible, with several footpaths and trails allowing visitors to explore its beauty. It is a haven for wildlife, with a variety of bird species, butterflies, and wildflowers thriving in its chalky environment. The area is also popular among rock climbers, who are drawn to the challenging routes and stunning views.

In summary, Radnor Cliff is a striking geological feature in Folkestone, Kent, offering stunning views, historical significance, and a unique habitat for wildlife. It is a must-visit destination for nature enthusiasts, history buffs, and those seeking an exhilarating outdoor experience.

Royal Victoria Hospital, Radnor Park Avenue The hospital opened on Rendezvous Street in Folkestone as the Folkestone Dispensary in 1846.The name was expanded to Folkestone Dispensary and Infirmary and it relocated to a site on Dover Road in Folkestone in 1863. The current general hospital buildings were constructed on Radnor Park Avenue, and opened in 1890, when the name was again changed, this time to the Victoria Hospital. The prefix Royal was added in 1910. 

In the 1970s, services were scaled down, with the focusing of regional hospital care in East Kent on the town of Ashford, Kent. In 1973 maternity services were moved to Ashford's Willesborough Hospital.

The notice affixed to the fence, is identified as The Plot C7 and bears the following information, “The production of gas at the Ship Street Gasworks ceased in 1959 but the social club for workers and local residents remained active on the derelict site for many years after.
