Dover Castle
English Heritage
United Kingdom
The Officers' New Barracks at Dover Castle, built in the 1850s. Commanding the shortest sea crossing between England and the continent, Dover Castle has a long and immensely eventful history. Known as the ‘key to England’, this great fortress has played a crucial role in the defence of the realm for over nine centuries, a span equalled only by the Tower of London and Windsor Castle.
