Dover is an ancient town. As the "Gateway to England"
it has faced armies of invasion, been fortified, settled
and developed.
If many of the nearly 20 million travellers
who annually pass through its harbour remember it only
for its white cliffs,
that is their loss. For within the protection of its
chalk valley the town has the history of England spelt
out in its buildings. |
