  Yes, Howard, it's open - at least one end - with a temporary entrance. They are working on the 'street' end at present.

  Channel flights were no doubt started by this one in 1785
  (from the Kentish Gazette of that year)

  Interesting display this, Library is open during re-furbishment and the display appears to act as a barrier between the works and the open part - very cold in there though with all the work going on behind.
  Oh Boy!, That'll be the day.........
