Might have been last week's paper, it was in the "Memories" section though written by mailto:hollingsbee@uk2.net Bob Hollingsbee, you could try contacting him.
I am assured there is a bunker under Waterstones, though there was no mention of this in the article.
I think the article said someone was researching these secret tunnels, maybe they're writing a book?
This is part of my website The FG that I built in a fury of excitement when I first came here in approximately '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite places and stuff, and I know it was a useful reference for others who were thinking of moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. My name is not Gerald BTW, this comes from a fake newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
