About Folkestone

Folkestone, a charming English seaside town nestled on the Kent coast, boasts a rich history intertwined with its geographical position. Archaeological evidence suggests settlements as far back as the Iron Age, drawn to the area's natural harbor. During the Roman occupation of Britain, the strategic location blossomed into a port known as Portus Dubris, a vital link between Roman Britain and Gaul (modern-day France). This legacy is still visible in the excavated Roman fort on the cliffs, offering a glimpse into Folkestone's ancient past.Fast forward to medieval times, and Folkestone's role as a gateway continued. The town became a crucial point of defense against potential invaders, evidenced by the construction of Folkestone Castle in the 11th century. With the rise of maritime trade, Folkestone thrived as a port for goods and passengers. The invention of the steam engine in the 18th century further propelled Folkestone's evolution. The town became a key stop on the newly established railway line connecting London to Dover, solidifying its position as a crucial transportation hub.
