Advantages: beautiful, wild, ancient, great views Disadvantages: painful in bad weather
The WhiteCliffs of Dover are one of those archetypal, iconic images of Britain: and rightly so, as Dover has been a place of comings and goings for time immemorial (Romans contemplated landing here, but decided against it; Lancelot travelled form here onto his exile, and millions of hopeful immigrants and thirsty day-shoppers leave and arrive via Dover every day).
