Jewish Thanet History Walks

Jews and non-Jews alike are invited to take a walk along the Thanet coast, like so many holidaymakers before you. In Cliftonville, Jewish women built new lives running kosher boarding houses - so good, even the Chief Rabbi came. In Margate, Jewish families made holidays, ran bazaars, brought joy to the seaside. In Ramsgate, Sir Moses and Lady Judith Montefiore built a legacy of Sephardi learning and chesed (grace). Birchington gave rise to early Jewish politics, Westgate was dreamed up by a Jewish gadfly, and Broadstairs was where sick bodies healed and young souls studied.
