I was born 200 yards from the Clifftop Cafe in Capel, so some fond memories of running up and down the Warren as a kid when visiting grandparents. My father used to work at the cafe when it was owned by a man called Vic and tells of going up and down the warren daily, selling ice creams on the beach. Used to be a very busy place. There are two cave like areas in the cliffs, off the paths, that were gun placements in WW2 and these are not too far below the cafe, but no doubt now overgrown. Its been years since I have walked down there, but am there this Christmas so may go down and have a look.....

Your e-mail address is mandatory in order to post a message or a reply, but it will be hidden from the page.  It will never be used for any purpose other than to possibly contact you if you get an answer to a query you posted.
Because we have had a problem with advertisements being placed here, we have switched the security to a Folkestone question and answer.  If you want to make a legitimate post here, but don't know the answer to the question, please e-mail me at folkestonethenandnow@gmail.com  explaining a little of why you are posting, and I will give you the answer.  Hint:  it is one word, all in lower case letters.
ATTENTION: It appears you can only post to this guestbook if you are on a desktop computer. I have tested it with both an Ipad and a desktop, and it will only post from the latter. I will look for a more inclusive guestbook, but in the meantime, please accept my apologies.
