Steep hill it’s on, must make hanging on to the scaffolding a bit precarious!

Perhaps they were going self service as it was Friday and vicars only work on Sundays.

It has looked shabby for many years and will continue to do so until the various councils pull their finger out and get together to improve the Dover image, but considering only a few councillors care or even live within the town's boundaries I will not hold my breath.

Shame it has to be turned off whenever there are performers in the square so they don't electrocute themselves!

Does anyone know why one entrance along the seafront underpass just past market square has been boarded up?.

Is it to do with the demolition of nearby buildings? Health and Safety.
