About

Central Harbour ward encompasses the core of Ramsgate's working port and adjacent residential streets. The area is dominated by the Royal Harbour itself, a historic dock with both commercial and leisure vessels. Industrial buildings and marina facilities line the inner basins, while rows of Georgian and Victorian terraced houses climb the surrounding slopes. The waterfront is functional, with a focus on maritime activity rather than tourism.

The ward includes the East Cliff area, offering elevated views over the harbour mouth and the English Channel. Ramsgate's main sandy beach is located just to the south, outside the ward's boundary. A notable feature is the network of underground tunnels, originally constructed as shelters, which extends beneath parts of the ward. The overall character is shaped by its direct relationship with the sea and port operations.
