About the Event

Join us for a funny and irreverent presentation that takes you through the ages in Margate.

The tour covers not just maverick authors, rock ‘n’ roll artists and runaway lovers … (many of them famous, and some you never knew)….  but also booze smugglers, naughty Victorians, and the amusing tale of the (real) Margate mechanical elephant. Will MacLachlan is a local historian who works in marketing and loves comedy… so he likes to make history relevant and fun for the audience.
