I congratulate you on your excellent, informative and memory jogging website. Although my family didn't move to Folkestone until the end of 1951, when I was three years old, I always consider it as my home town. I left the area in 1967 when I enlisted into the Army.

During the period I lived in the following locations: Folkestone - Dover Road, London Street, The Bayle Steps (connection from the Old High Street to Bayle Street [If I remember there were only two houses])Cheriton Road, (close to the junction with Radnor Park West); and Hythe - West Parade,(either at the junction with Albert Road or Ormonde Road).

My schooling was at Dover Road Primary (as I always knew it until visiting this website), Christ Church Primary, and Brockhill County Secondary for Boys in Saltwood, Hythe.

I have spent many enjoyable hours looking into different facets of the website, but I feel I've only scratched the surface of the depth of information you have meticulously brought together.

Your e-mail address is mandatory in order to post a message or a reply, but it will be hidden from the page. It will never be used for any purpose other than to possibly contact you if you get an answer to a query you posted.

Because we have had a problem with advertisements being placed here, we have switched the security to a Folkestone question and answer. If you want to make a legitimate post here, but don't know the answer to the question, please e-mail me at folkestonethenandnow@gmail.com explaining a little of why you are posting, and I will give you the answer. Hint: it is one word, all in lower case letters.

ATTENTION: It appears you can only post to this guestbook if you are on a desktop computer. I have tested it with both an Ipad and a desktop, and it will only post from the latter. I will look for a more inclusive guestbook, but in the meantime, please accept my apologies.
