ARTIFICIAL FRONT
FOR RAMSGATE
Goodwin Sands May Be Used As An Extension
TO BE COMPLETED BY JUNE.
As Birnam Wood came to Dan- Isinade, so Goodwin Sands may bằ brought to Ramsgate, which has long been dissatisfied with the ex tent of its bathing beach
As for the bench Itself there is nothing the matter with it. But it is limited to the harbour end of the town, and beneath the fine new West Cliff undercliff wall there is nothing, that even the most opti- mistic visitor could recognize as sand. So Ramsgate is to have an artificial beach.
The sand for the first Instalment, which is to be completed by the beginning of June, is to be taken from the existing beach, and for the remainder of the work it will be necessary to go further afield, possibly to the neighbourhood of the Goodwins.
The initial cost will be £7,000. If the new beach withstands the gales of next autumn, the Town Council, probably will decide to proceed with further sections of a £49.000 scheme.
Ramsgate will then have 8,000 feet of artificial beach. A chil dren's swimming pool is to be pro elded by next June.
