Hurst’s Tower, which is located between Peverells Tower and Cannons Gate, along the south western outer curtain wall of Dover Castle is one of a series of 13th-century towers dating from the reign of Henry III (1216-1272). It is one of three towers located along this stretch of the curtain wall, all of a similar date and in a similar style. (Gatton’s and Say’s towers are the other two). All of these have been altered or reduced in height to accommodate later (17th/18th-century) military requirements. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
