  • Margate Caves Cliftonville © 2009 R
    KENT ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY MARGATE CAVES CLIFTONVILLE © 2009 R. F. LeGear MAAIS AIFA This paper has been downloaded from www.kentarchaeology.ac. The author has placed the paper on the site for download for personal or academic use. Any other use must be cleared with the author of the paper who retains the copyright. Please email [email protected] for details regarding copyright clearance. The Kent Archaeological Society (Registered Charity 223382) welcomes the submission of papers. The details can be downloaded from the website. Introduction The set of chalk caves known as Margate Caves have been a popular tourist attraction since the 1860s when they were first opened to the public as ‘Vortigern’s cavern’. In 2004, the Caves were closed due to Health and Safety issues and access to the site is now prohibited, the long-term future of the Caves being uncertain. This short paper is based on a report prepared for the Heritage Developments Advisor of Thanet District Council by the writer in December 2008. Methodology As the Caves are not currently accessible this report has been prepared primarily from notes made during 1993 when the manager of the Caves at the time, Nikki Martin, planned to remove the accumulated debris that had been deposited down the well and clear out the shafts [or sumps] at the bottom of the so called dungeons. A small party of Kent Underground Research Group members volunteered to undertake these tasks and spent several weekends at the site¹. The writer was invited to attend and used the opportunity to conduct a modern underground survey using standard cave survey techniques [Fig 1].

The 283mm (11”) guns for the battery came from the damaged battleship Gneisenau. The guns were then installed in the mountains above the island of Sotra to protect the entrance to Bergen. These modern and accurate guns had a range of 24 miles and were protected by several anti-aircraft batteries supported by air search radar. Extensive ground fortifications protected the battery as well. The battery had a crew of 250 men. The Battery Fjell unit featured in this set represents the battery itself but also a number of other defensive fortifications, garrison units and light weapons.
