Dear Christopher, I am the history and property editor for The Margate Mercury magazine. We are keen to do a feature celebrating the achievement of the Margate Steps, a space which has transformed the Old Town’s access to the beach, and manages to be both a flood defence and wonderful social space, as well as a subtle and beautiful sculptural work.
I believe you were the project artist on the work, and wonder whether I could speak to you for this feature. I do hope you can help. I lived in Margate before the steps were built and I so appreciate the improvements they have brought, but I also feel it is a rather unsung project in the town, and I’d love to ask more about what part you played.
Thanks and best wishes
Ros
