White cliffs of Dover

A straight forward day with not a lot to comment on.

Spent all day romping in and around Dover Castle. This is a very large site, with a myriad of things to see. The site ranges from the Roman Pharos (lighthouse), to the medieval keep, Napoloeonic defences, WWI anti-aircraft defences and the WWII tunnel complex. Being a Sunday, we were treated to re-enactors putting on a display with the WWI AA gun.

It’s really, really big

 

The re-enactment went off with a bang
 
Without describing the whole thing in detail, that’s it.

Saxon church and Roman lighthouse

Dover is 45 miles from Hawkhurst and the drive to/from Dover was an interesting ramble through country lanes and small villages, with a bit of motorway thrown in.
More tomorrow, Steve J.
