About Thanet and the 01843 Area Code
Thanet is the easternmost point of Kent, a broad chalk promontory bounded by the sea on three sides, historically separated from the mainland by the Wantsum Channel. Margate, the largest town in the area, was one of England's original seaside resorts, popularised in the Georgian era by the fashion for sea-bathing. Its fortunes have been revived in recent years by the opening of the Turner Contemporary gallery in 2011, designed by David Chipperfield on the site where J.M.W. Turner stayed and painted his celebrated seascapes.
The 01843 exchanges cover the full sweep of Thanet's coast. Broadstairs retains the charm of a Victorian resort, with its sandy Viking Bay and annual Dickens Festival celebrating Charles Dickens, who wrote much of "David Copperfield" at Bleak House overlooking the harbour. Ramsgate has a thriving Royal Harbour, the only one in the country granted the title by George IV, and fine Regency architecture along its seafront. Birchington is a quieter village where the Pre-Raphaelite artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti died in 1882 and is buried in the churchyard. Minster has a 7th-century abbey founded by the Saxon princess Domne Eafe.
A 01843 virtual phone number connects your business with the Isle of Thanet, an area experiencing a significant cultural and economic renaissance. The combination of outstanding beaches, architectural heritage, creative industries, and excellent transport links to London via High Speed 1 makes Thanet an increasingly attractive business location.
