About Fencing in Ramsgate
Ramsgate in Kent is home to England's only Royal Harbour, a title granted after King George IV landed there in 1822, and the town's grand Georgian architecture along the seafront still reflects the wealth that harbour trade and later tourism brought. Charles Dickens was a regular visitor here too, and from his window at the Royal Albion Hotel he watched a formidable local woman named Mary Pearson Strong chase donkeys away from her home, a scene said to have inspired the character of Betsey Trotwood in David Copperfield.

Does Ramsgate's coastal weather affect fencing choices?
Salt laden coastal air can accelerate corrosion of metal fittings, so galvanised or stainless steel fixings and well treated timber are recommended near the harbour.
