    The population of Dover has declined dramatically in the last 60 years. Unless this is reversed there will not be enough people living here to support more than the most basic shops and certainly too few to encourage and support any leisure development. Without new housing (and DTC along with others have raised the point about including affordable housing in the schemes) those growing up in the town now will move out to find work and homes. We can watch the town grow, and do our best to make sure that such development preserves our heritage, or we can watch it die.

    In a hundred years time do we want people walking over the hills saying, "these dips used to mark the largest Drop redoubt and defences in the country and that lorry park used to be the town centre of old Dover,"?

    Ross, excellent 1000th post.
