Britain's What's On Event Guide
St Margaret of Antioch at St Margaret's-at-Cliffe
Heritage Open Day: St Margaret's Grade I listed church may be one of the earliest aisled churches of its date, and is certainly one of the most famous Norman churches in Kent It's oldest foundations date back to Saxon times. Take the time to explore the interior, find the ancient maritime graffiti in the stonework, pause over the beautiful windows and read the plaques. In the south wall is a particularly evocative window commemorating three local men who lost their lives in the Herald of Free Enterprise disaster in 1987. The windows behind the main altar have the most wonderful delphinium blue glass which looks magnificent when the sun shines through.
