Part of Dumpton Gap. Broadstairs - a photo on Flickriver

            Formerly called 'Dodemayton' this gap in the cliffs was used by farmers to gather seaweed as manure for their fields ( I remember the smell on the land!) With the advent of the telephone it was decided to lay continental submarine cable from this point across the channel. The cable ship Fencible was responsible for laying a submarine cable across the channel to Ostend.
