Margate, Kent
Horse-drawn buses wait on a crowded sea front whilst holidaymakers take a stroll on the promenade. A line of bathing huts can be seen on the shore in the distance. The coming of the railways gave women more opportunities to travel and it became accepted that they might travel alone or with other women. During the Edwardian period women began wearing less bulky clothing which also gave them more freedom.
