After visiting Herne village, a half an hour walk or so took us into Herne Bay.
The bandstand (above and below) is one of the most prominent features in Herne Bay. Have just read that it dates back to the 1920s, and back then, was a popular venue for visiting military band concerts and tea dances (often between 4 and 7pm).
Can't remember if I've ever been on Herne Bay Pier before or not:
Have just read that Herne Bay Clock Tower, built in 1837, is a Grade II listed landmark, and is said to be one of the earliest, free-standing clock towers in the UK:
A few people were eating fish and chips in front of the Clock Tower. My travelling colleague, from Ireland, said that he could hear lots of Eastender accents from London.
And finally, the beautiful Baptist church in Herne Bay:
Would love to see if the interior of the church is the equal of the exterior which I find truly stunning.
