The project is to document and survey 3½ miles of historic manmade tunnel structures within the Ramsgate area in order to restore and preserve them as part of an all-weather, year-round tourist and heritage project. The survey will properly document the entire tunnel system so as to clearly define its true condition, collate and archive all the available documentary evidence and draw up a workable business plan to develop them as a heritage attraction and educational resource.

Good luck Ramsgate Tunnels! Thanet needs more attractions to be opened and this project is so steeped in local & national history that it needs to be opened to the public. We're all supporting you here at letsvisit.co.uk :-)

Good luck Ramsgate tunnels. It would be amazing to be able to venture in these tunnels. Hopefully it would be a boost to the local economy also

A fascinating project in an area that desperately needs investment and is often overlooked because of its proximity to Margate.
