 Agree with all. This is Wellington Parade, Walmer, jonction with Cecil road. The path from cliff to sea level still exists. Some of these houses are still standing, although slightly modified, beach huts all gone although some path leading to them are still visible, plenty of bushes on beach now, cliff edge full of trees and bushes. The beach is also narrower now. |

Plenty of pictures of Deal on this site - probaly taken on Same flight and possibly the plane took off from the airfield a the top of the picture. Walmer Castle is 1/4 of a mile to the right. |

North Kent coast, or Sussex? Same month (Feb 1920) as unlocated photos that have recently been identified as Herne Bay and Eastbourne. |
