Dover Castle

Dover castle sites above the town of Dover, overlooking this major transport hub, protecting it when needed. Beneath this castle lies the tunnels that commanded troops all over the world, acting almost as an auxiliary 'war room'. With famous monarchs making this there home, such as Henry VIII, the castle has always acted as both a symbolic and strategic stronghold.
