Dover Castle. Wow,that's some steep hill to get to the castle 🏰. We'll worth it though. #dover #dovercastle #castle #Englishheritage #travel #tourist #Tuesday

As the seasons turn to Autumn the weather increasingly effects opening at the @pwrrqueensmuseum.bsky.social and #DoverCastle. Due to the high winds expected all day we will be closed (15 Sept). But we will be open as normal 🤞tomorrow.

Are you looking for a challenge or a change?
We are searching for volunteers to help with our craft and family events. No experience needed but people skills necessary. Contact us for more information.
