About Cliftonville

Cliftonville, a distinct suburb within Kent's Thanet district, unfolds with a character all its own. It lies 2.1 km east of Margate (from Margate: bearing 96°T, OS grid TR 374 706). The air here often carries the faint tang of the sea, a gentle reminder of its coastal proximity, and the sunlight, when it breaks through, tends to fall with a pale, almost pearlescent quality upon the varied architecture. Cliftonville grew in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period that left its mark in the sturdy Victorian and Edwardian houses, many with generous gardens that still retain a touch of old-fashioned abundance. The wide, tree-lined avenues suggest a planned elegance, a deliberate creation of genteel living, and one can almost hear the echo of horse-drawn carriages on the quietest afternoons. Its proximity to the coast means a constant, subtle dialogue with the elements, a whisper of salt and wind that permeates its everyday existence.
