Well, speaking as a Dovorian aged 73 from a family who can trace our history back at least 280 years I guess between us the Handley Family have encountered much Dover sh1#t over the years.

I do believe that's River's Meadway, RB, so the building with the window wall must be in Minnis Lane.

This one is in Dover.
Been going long enough.
This is on the rear boundary wall of pencester car park opposite the former law courts and adjacent to the church in Howards 1st post of this thread.
Put in place by John Birmingham conservative councillor and 3 time Mayor of Dover after his purchase of brook house estate, to mark its southern boundary.
I wonder what he would of thought of DDC's dodgy demolition of that beautiful piece of Dovers history.
