Old Hoverport Pegwell Bay.

Day 18 of Vlogmas at it's the Old Pegwell Bay Hoverport, Ramsgate (Ramsgate to Calais)1969 - 1987.

This hoverport, the pad of which is still intact at Ramsgate with the approach markings and car park outlines still visible, was the home to four SRN4 Mk II craft owned by Hoverlloyd between 1968 and 1987 prior to its shutdown resulting from the merger of Seaspeed with Hoverlloyd to form HoverSpeed. The ramp had terminal buildings and an access road coming from just north of Cliff's End on the A256 Sandwich Road. The access road still exists today but is blocked off to traffic by a barrier. The pad is accessible on foot, however, from the road or from the nearby beaches. Hoverlloyd was a Swedish company jointly owned by Swedish Lloyd and the Swedish American Line.
