Open top bus at Epple Bay – 1972
Heading towards Minnis Bay, taken from one of its sister vehicles. In the picture is East Kent Guy Arab III FFN377, new in 1951 and converted to open top in 1969 for the coastal service. My original record simply described the location as 'Coast Road', and it took some detective work to find the exact location.
This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761

Beacon at Epple Bay
Seen from the cliff top near Birchington, Epple Bay is this side of the headland ahead. A path drops down from the road to the sea wall in the gully immediately beyond the grass on the right.

Temporarily closed railway bridge over Epple Road
Seen from Alpha Road, the further notice on the right warned that "road closed here for bridge works from 25/11/13 for 10 weeks". The contractor for these works was Balfour Beatty Rail. There was a narrow passage for pedestrians under the bridge to enable them to reach the roads on the other side.
