쉬운 타넷 주변 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

나중에 빅토리아 여왕이 브로드스테어스를 방문했을 때, 스넬링은 너무 악명 높아서 그녀에게 “유명한 밀수꾼”으로 소개되었습니다! 동굴 입구는 절벽 뒤쪽 곡선 부분에 쉽게 접근할 수 있으며, 약간 비스듬히 위쪽으로 이어집니다. 총 3개의 작은 동굴이 있으며, 진주 목걸이처럼 나란히 늘어서 있습니다. 예전에는 위쪽 출구가 있었지만 지금은 존재하지 않습니다. 들어가는 길이 곧 나가는 길입니다. 각 동굴 사이에는 낮은 통로가 있습니다. 약간의 먼지와 석회질에 신경 쓰지 않는다면 탐험을 떠나는 것이 재미있을 것입니다.

A Notorious Smuggler's Favorite Spot Due to its proximity to mainland Europe and its remote, cave-riddled bays, smuggling was a livelihood and a vital economic activity for many people along the Kent coast throughout much of the 18th and 19th centuries. Thanet's smugglers openly carried weapons, defied the authorities, and forced locals to supply them with fodder and fresh horses. During the Battle of Botany Bay, informed tax collectors clashed with the notorious smuggler Joss Snelling and his gang. Machetes, knives, and boat hooks were used in the bloody battle, in which Snelling lost 15 of his men. The danger (or the contraband) must have suited Snelling well. He reached the ripe old age of 96 and in 1830 – at the age of 89 – was fined 100 pounds for smuggling – an enormous sum!

Botany Bay, one of Thanet's most photographed bays, is famous. This hidden gem offers breathtaking views of white cliffs and beautiful chalk formations. At low tide, Botany Bay is an ideal spot for fossil hunting and exploring the tide pools. At high tide, there's plenty of exposed sand to discover, but due to the bay's shape, the ends are cut off at high tide.

The Shrine of Our Lady of the Star of the Sea was an ancient chapel on the cliffs of Broadstairs (formerly Bradstowe). The chapel's twin towers, whose origins date back to at least the 1350s, served as an important landmark for local sailors. Due to the veneration shown to the shrine, a custom developed for ships to lower their sails as they passed, in salute to the shrine. The structural remains of St. Mary's Chapel, incorporated into the modern facade, stand on the site of what is believed to be the oldest surviving building in present-day Broadstairs. Within its modern interior are the remains of the medieval shrine of Our Lady of Bradstowe. (Wikipedia) The historic St. Mary's Chapel has been repurposed and now houses the Chapel Bar & Bookshop, serving local beers and snacks, as well as an antiquarian bookshop with over 30,000 titles.

The Grade II listed building, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, is also known as the boathouse (named after the lifeboat used from 1869 to 1912) and harbormaster's office. However, a 2015 report in the Isle of Thanet Gazette stated: "The old boathouse is thought to have been built around 1700 with a thatched roof. In 1843, this was replaced with a heavier slate roof, which probably caused the building's current visible lean." The building underwent a thorough inspection by Thanet Council in 2006, which found no structural issues. However, a June 2016 report by the Broadstairs Town Team stated that the building "is so badly deteriorated that local residents' concerns about its condition have prompted the town to investigate what needs to be done, both in the short and long term, to safeguard its status as one of Broadstairs' landmark buildings."
