Dover, unknown dates.

This may be useful:

[Edit :This pier was demolished/destroyed before 1939!] This shows the two 'towers' at the entrance of the pier. You can also see them in the next 2 photograph after this:

the promenade pier in dover was demolished in 1927, so that photo preporting to be the promenade pier in 1940 in one of major setbacks photos, is how shall we say, somewhat inaccurate.

Default Dover

I posted this thread re Dover some time ago. All pictures would relate to 1940.

BUT, the ferry harbour to the east of Dover Harbour is a recent creation and would not have been present in 1940. Also, the yacht marina did not exist in 1940 as it was used as a standard harbour.

As mentioned earlier, the Pier did not exist in 1940. All that was present were the stone breakwaters.

The youtube video in the link gives an interesting and brief view of Dover Harbour during a Luftwaffe attack.

Hi Oleg, Having lived in Dover during the BoB and up to 1998 i see your best reference so far of the castle and poW pier is the pictures submitted by Major Setback. the aerial shot of Dover Castle is ideal for the SOW as most pictures
don't really show the whole layout. I know the piers well as i have fished off of all
of them. The Prince of Wales is as it was with the exception of the cafe at the dumphead end[lighthouse]. Oleg i'm coming up to 78 yrs old, will i be SOW lucky?
