According to Friday's Metro (London, page 14-the humorous stories):
Margate's famous Dreamland amusement park is currently threatened with closure. The roller coaster there was listed in 2002, however in a remarkable twist the owners have applied to have it de-listed. Although the full hearing will be heard in the coming weeks, they have apparently found evidence to suggest it gave its first public rides in 1919 instead of 1920 as it was previously thought. Although the listed status may fail on a technicality, it would be the first time a structure was de-listed because it was older than originally anticipated. The owners refused to give a statement.
