  • Folkestone Town Council
    FOLKESTONE TOWN COUNCIL ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 TOWN MAYOR 2019 – 2020 It has been my great honour to serve as Town Mayor of Folkestone this year. It has been a joy to meet and support so many of the wonderful projects, events and charities that make Folkestone so special. Our Museum has gone from strength to strength and has played host to some excellent events including the unveiling of the photograph recreating The Belgian Refugee painting in the Town Hall, where over 200 residents took part showing what a vibrant and welcoming community we are. Folkestone has had some amazing events this year, including Friendship Charter with Mechinager, Nepal; Winner of World Music Town; 25th Royal Gurkha Rifles anniversary attended by Prince Charles; 75th Normandy Veterans Day; Unveiling of the DNA results showing that the skeleton of Aefre, with 98% certainty, is our very own Saint, St Eanswythe; Armed Forces Day with the Red Arrows with over 100,000 attending; Folkestone Trawler Race; Town Hall Christmas Light Switch On with live reindeer and our very own Sandcastle Competition! Due to the Covid-19 restrictions the Town Mayor’s Community Awards have been postponed until later in the year. I would like to thank all the residents who came forward as volunteers during the Covid-19 restrictions and those that self-isolated, to help their friends, neighbours and residents in need - a true community response. I would also like to thank all the key workers who have helped keep us safe and well during this difficult time. My Consort, Bryan, and I have had the pleasure of attending many civic, ceremonial duties and charity fund raising events across the whole of Kent.

  • Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR23 H (Mill Point East, Folkestone Harbour and Folkestone Pier)
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR23 H (Mill Point East, Folkestone Harbour and Folkestone Pier) The coastline is one of the main features within the tetrad, over half of which is comprised by sea. There is a shingle beach which runs from the west end to Folkestone Pier and at low tide a rocky area (Mill Point) is exposed in the western section. Inland of this, in the western half of the tetrad, is the Lower Leas Coastal Park, which extends into the adjacent square. The Coastal Park, which is also known as ‘Mill Point’, has been regularly watched since 1988 and a total of 172 species have been recorded here (the full list is provided at the end of this guide). The Coastal Park was created in 1784 when a landslip produced a new strip of land between the beach and the revised cliff line. In 1828 the Earl of Radnor built a toll road providing an easy route between the harbour and Sandgate and the toll house survives as a private residence within the tetrad. Looking west along Folkestone Beach towards the Lower Leas Coastal Park Looking south-east along Folkestone Pier Either side of the toll road land was cultivated or grazed until in the 1880s pines and Evergreen (Holm) Oaks were planted, being soon followed by self-seeded sycamores, creating a coastal woodland with a lower canopy of hawthorn and ground cover, designed to appeal to visitors to the emerging resort of Folkestone. Access to this wooded area is provided by the toll road and several paths, including the promenade on the Leas which affords good views into the tree tops, where crests, flycatchers and warblers, including Yellow-browed Warbler on occasion, may be seen.

Ray Johnson, Race Director Many thanks for entering our special 10 th Half Marathon event . This year to mark the occasion we have produced a special medal and are offering the opportunity to purchase a souvenir T-shirt. We are also introducing chip timing to the half marathon for the first time. We’re all set for another great event – I’ve ordered the sunshine and this year’s race will once again pass under the WW1 Memorial Arch on the Leas. To those who are attending this event for the first time, you are sure to enjoy the course and as always to past runners I wish you well! Reflecting on when I set up the event back in 2006, it’s great we now accommodate hundreds of runners and equally hundreds of spectators which creates a great atmosphere.
