Wartime subterranean hospital carved into Dover Castle’s chalk — moody tunnels, arched wards, original fittings and graffiti offer evocative interior compositions. Entry via Dover Castle ticket; parking on site. Low, warm artificial light year-round; weekdays and early/late season give fewer visitors. Some narrow steps and uneven surfaces—check opening hours and any photography/flash restrictions before visiting.
