Margate at Northdown Corner

Margate at Northdown Corner

Above: Margate (striped shirts in top photo, one of the teams in stripes in the lower one) in action in two matches at Northdown Corner, the date of the photos is unknown but the club used the ground from 1903/04 to 1911/12 inclusive so they must have been taken during that period. In the second photo the player with the moustache to the extreme right is almost certainly Freddie Pearce and that picture may date from 1905.


Above: These two pictures were taken on 16th March 1907 when Margate beat Royal Marines Deal 1-0 to win the Margate & District Charity Cup.
