…yes, of Dover. Again, from our 1985 vacation in the UK:
While there was a lot of fog and smog, and little sunlight, preventing the cliffs from displaying their usual beautiful white, they still were an impressive sight from the Promenade…
From Dover, the cliffs run mainly westward, their bright white wall catching the full southern sun. Now the really tall cliffs begin! Views from the edge are the most breathtaking in the entire length of the White Cliffs, reaching heights of nearly 500 feet.
The drop is completely vertical, and in many places has a substantial overhang. Unfenced and unstable, the edge is a dizzying place, to be approached with the greatest caution. Seagulls glide high above the water—far, far below.
These great, vertical cliffs end five miles west of Dover, and the White Cliffs enter their final phase. Here the top 100 yards of the cliffs have retreated about a quarter of a mile inland, leaving a rough platform perched above the sea. Below the platform are the final 50 feet of cliff, protected by huge sea walls. This is the only place where a walker can follow a safe, marked path straight down the cliff face from top to bottom.
The White Cliffs end on a south-facing hill, covered in short-cropped grass and topped by a Martello Tower—a tall, thick-walled cylinder upon which cannons were mounted to repel any invaders trying to land. The Cliffs of Dover truly are a sight to behold.
If you’re ever in the UK, don’t miss this sight!

I can hear the enthusiasm in your description. Just for the record, the Seven Sisters cliffs about 70 miles to the south-east are even more beautiful because the view isn’t obstructed by a town in front. If you go back to England at all you might want to take those in, too. Sue x
