English Heritage brings together its two great lifelong loves: history and design. Everyday wandering, market strolls, or history-laden adventures will be accompanied by this durable, yet soft, tote bag to ensure that the journey remains a joyful and well-organised escapade. Our tote bag, a piece of portable history, becomes a practical extension of Dover Castle.
Dover Castle is one of England’s oldest and most famous fortresses. A medieval castle forms its core, but from the 1740s onwards its outer defences were dramatically reshaped in the face of the threat of invasion from France. During the Napoleonic Wars, a network of military tunnels was cut within the famous white cliffs to provide barracks for the garrison. These tunnels were adapted during the Second World War and played a vital role in Britain’s war effort: it was from here that the near-miraculous evacuation of British and French troops from Dunkirk was masterminded in May and June 1940.
