How long have there been amusements at Ramsgate, and was there any connection with the amusement park at Southend. I thnk there was a company called Thanet Amusements, but do not know what they controlled. I recently bought a photograph postally used in 1948, but which I believe was atken pre war of ramsgate showing an Ark, Dodgems, Moonrocket, Big Wheel, and what appears to be an early Mont Blanc. I believe the ark was owned by Charlie Shaw, and was later sold to John Farrar, and I think the Mont Blanc is one that was owned by Jack Proctor. Was there a policy of letting the sites to travelling showmen. Earlier in the 30's James Monte Williams Scenic was moved to Ramsgate from Southend after it had ceased travelling.
