Heritage attraction

What is recorded here

The Barbican Gate is shown as a heritage attraction on the public map of Dover. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
The Barbican Gate is part of Dover Castle's medieval defences, dating back to the 14th century, and served as a fortified entrance to the castle's inner ward. It is associated with the strategic military importance of Dover in defending England, particularly during the English Civil War and the Second World War.
