Whitstable Health Centre
The health centre was built on the site of a second, larger station at Whitstable Harbour on the Canterbury to Whitstable Railway (nicknamed The Crab and Winkle) and was constructed between 1894 and 1895 and opened on 3 June that year; it was demolished in 1957. The station was built in connection with redesigning the site and installing extra sidings after coking ovens (used to produce fuel for the steam engines on the line) were demolished in 1892.
The Canterbury to Whitstable Railway (nicknamed The Crab and Winkle) was opened on 3 May 1830 with stations at Canterbury West and Whitstable Harbour only. Three further stations were opened during the 20th century at Blean and Tyler Hill Halt on 13 June 1908, South Street Halt on 1 July 1911 and Tankerton Halt on 1 July 1914. The railway was closed to passengers on 31 December 1930 and to all traffic on 1 December 1952. However, the following year it was reopened from 6-28 February to carry essential services from Canterbury to Whitstable, as a result of the severe coastal flooding that occurred along the east coast of the UK early in 1953.
