In Secret Folkestone, authors Terry Begent and Eamonn Rooney reveal the history beneath the surface of Folkestone from the foundation of the first nunnery in England by St Eanswythe in the 7th century to the present day. Amongst the topics covered are the story of the stone in 'Folke-stone', the town's role in defending the nation from invasion through the ages, the cliff-top source of Folkestone's Victorian water supply, how a mediaeval monarch tamed the local piratical fishermen into a naval force, the riot to free smugglers from Folkestone Gaol in 1820, the First World War aerial bombardment that left nearly 100 dead and much more.
