Folkestone Travelogue Reflects Quiet Resort Appeal
The London Letter surveys Folkestone as a once fashionable coastal retreat now modest and orderly. It notes absence of nightlife, daily aircraft over the Channel, and military presence. The author enjoys country drives from Folkestone to Canterbury and Dover, praising hop kilns, windmills, and English farms while musing on farming, wages, and rural life.
