Situated in the heart of Dover is this gem of a tunnel system. Lagoon & Beaufoys caves,which are rough cut from chalk,linked together by Tower Hamlets ARP tunnel which is lined with concrete. Pretty immaculate inside,thanks to a somewhat unconventional access. There is a good write up on Kent history forum with maps & official documents,so if the history side is your bag,go look!

Looking down Lagoon cave,you can see the toilet still in situ.

Behind the board is now a restaurants cellar.

The cables you see along the ceiling are from a post war Rediffusion system.

Thanks for looking!
