Tankerton Cannons (dating from about 1700) show the importance of the area for defence, through to WW2, perhaps due to ‘The Street’ – a gravel ridge seen at low tide stretching about 1km out to sea. It has been used for industry and shelter but its origin is unknown – have you any ideas?
Where to eat & drink
On Marine Parade is the Tankerton Ice Cream Parlour and The Marine Bar and Hotel. Just west of ‘The Street’ is The Bubble Café and Tower Tea Gardens.
