St. Margaret's at Cliffe is a three-part village situated just off the coast road between Deal and Dover in Kent, England.

The centre of the village is about ¾ mile (1 km) from the sea, with the residential area of Nelson Park further inland, and St Margaret's Bay situated along and below the cliffs north of South Foreland.

[3] In 1851, the first successfully laid international submarine telegraph cable started here to Sangatte, France – with Thomas Russell Crampton as the responsible engineer.

Most of the guns were anti-aircraft but there were heavier pieces intended to prevent German shipping from travelling along the French coast.

Oxney Court, to the north east of the village, is a Grade II listed country house, dating from the 16th century.

At the start of the 20th century, a second fire shed was constructed on the beach where there was a small community existing of hotels, cafés and housing.
