Spitfire and Hurricane Memorial Museum –
The iconic RAF fighter planes of WW2, the

Hurricane IIC are all housed under one roof at
the historical Battle of Britain airfield in Manston,
Ramsgate – and are well worth a visit.

Cliff highlighting the architecture designed by A.

Scandalmongers – This unique and exciting
venture is dedicated to showing people exactly
what the ancient art of storytelling is all about.

in art galleries, for example – you will be told
folktales, myths, and legends.

staunchly imperial theme, this restaurant combines
