South Foreland
South Foreland is a chalk headland on the Kent coast of southeast England. It presents a bold cliff to the sea, and commands views over the Strait of Dover. It is 3 miles northeast of Dover and 15 miles south of North Foreland. It is the closest point on the British mainland to the European continent at a distance of only 21 miles . This proximity gives it military significance and during World War II a coastal battery was sited on the headland along with a radar station.
