Description

The Central Bandstand, Herne Bay, Kent, England. The title "The new bandstand" suggests that the photograph was taken in 1924 when it was built.

Points of interest
  • The photographer probably used film instead of a large-format glass negative. The picture is in focus but there is no fine detail.
  • The notice over the proscenium arch above the stage says: "Buffs Depot Band". The rest of the notice is almost illegible, but it appears that there was an afternoon concert at 3pm and possibly a later one.
  • The deckchairs were handed out for a small fee and deposit by young deckchair boys. They are not evident in this photo, but the pile of folded deckchairs can be seen on the left. They were made of wood and canvas, and provided summer holiday work for schoolchildren and a little winter work for local people in repairs.
