Dover

Ages ago now I went to Dover. Quite possibly nothing is still relevant but hey let’s give it a go.
While I didn’t go to the cliffs I did take the day to explore the fascinating Dover Castle.
It’s walkable from the station on the way you can visit the Dover Museum (notably the bronze age boat) as well!
The castle complex is large and easy to wander around where you’ll learn about the different periods (from medieval to world war two).
There are some interesting exhibits, particularly the new (at the time) ones dealing with Operation Dynamo and the evacuation of Dunkirk. The downside is that due to space restrictions if mis timed with the arrival of a tour bus(es) you may find getting into some of these exhibits more of a challenge.
Otherwise a great day out and recommended!
