Station Name: DOVER MARINE/DOVER WESTERN DOCKS

Dover Marine station in 1960. The passenger entrance can just be made out top left, opposite the Lord Warden hotel. From that, two footbridges are seen. one runs along the east side of the hotel to the train ferry dock which is seen to the right of the hotel. The other is in line with the Admiralty Pier and then turns sharply to the east to enter the Marine station near the north end of the trainshed. This then joined up with an internal footbridge spanning the platforms. On the west side of the trainshed the curving four-road carriage shed is seen. The original pierhead with the gun turret is seen bottom left. The pier was widened here and extended in the first decade of the 20th century.
