Monkton, a quaint village nestled in the Isle of Thanet, takes us back to the enchanting era of the 1840s. As we explore this hidden gem through a Victorian map, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn carriages roamed its cobbled streets. The Blue Mazurka echoes through Monkton's air, captivating both locals and visitors alike. George Graves and Elisabeth Pechy's mesmerizing composition enchants hearts as dancers gracefully twirl to its rhythm. The melody lingers in every corner, filling the village with an undeniable charm. Intriguingly enough, it seems that The Blue Mazurka holds more significance than meets the eye. Perhaps it was inspired by monumental events such as Grand Duke Michael of Russia leaving Ballater Station in 1900 or even W. George's design for A Runaway Girl Waltz music cover from 1898. Monkton is not only limited to its musical allure; it also boasts picturesque landscapes that captivate all who lay eyes upon them.
