Summary[edit]

Description
English: A photograph by Frederick Christian Palmer (d.1941), of the promenade passing Kings Hall (built 1904), at Herne Bay, Kent, England, in the pre-First World War years of the 20th century. Fred C. Palmer worked at Herne Bay from 1903 to 1920, principally from his Tower Studio. The bandstand (seen on the upper part of the hall), does not exist today, although the upper enclosure railings do. To the right of the bandstand is a tiered platform for audience seating. The columned stone wall and steps edging the gardens have been replaced by bollards of cast iron and wood. The path below the steps has been raised to provide an access road from Beacon Hill, just seen at the top right, to Kings Hall. Palmer must have constructed a raised platform to achieve the angle shown. The geog-location is the approximate position of the camera.
