	The Cave of Vortigern at Margate, Kent
		Rediscovered by accident in 1798, the caves are considered by some to be of Saxon origin, consisting of a series of natural passages, which have been artificially enlarged.
		Margate Caves is a small cave, a single tunnel only, consisting of the steep entrance, leading up to a circular chamber called the 'Rotunda', a kind of roundabout.
		The cave is not very usefull for smugglers either, as there is no connection to the sea, and the only way to get into the caves originally was down a shaft, which would not fascilitate the stealthy use needed for smuggling operations.
