Lucy the Margate Elephant

Scarcely any shoreline attractions are as notable as Lucy, a 65-foot, six-story-high wood and tin elephant worked in the little beach front town of Margate in 1881 to pull in planned purchasers to summer homes in the region. From that point forward, Lucy has been a bar, a late spring home, and a perception deck. Fun guided visits are accessible.

In the wake of being saved from close downfall in the 1960s, today Lucy stands pleased in Josephine Harron Park and has been recorded on the National Park Registry of Historical Landmarks. Features of a visit incorporate climbing the winding staircase up to the "howdah," the little lodge like structure on her back, with its brilliant all encompassing perspectives.
