About Fencing in Dover

Dover in Kent owes its famous white cliffs to a catastrophic flood hundreds of thousands of years ago that swept away the chalk ridge once connecting Britain to Calais, carving the cliffs and starting the island's separation from the continent. Dover Castle, whose oldest structures date to the 11th century, was built up during the reign of Henry II and still contains one of the oldest standing buildings in Britain, a Roman lighthouse that is one of only three of its kind surviving anywhere in the world. Tunnels beneath the castle, some dug in medieval times and others during the Napoleonic Wars, later played a vital role in the Second World War, serving as a command centre for the Dunkirk evacuation of 1940.
