What nicknames have you heard for places in and around Dover?

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!

Examples could include things like St Maggies Bay, Shep, Capel-le-Fog or FTown (never mind how common they are)...

incl. nicknames for schools, parks or other institutions/geographic features

Dover, Kent, United Kingdom

Dover is a town and major ferry port in Kent, South East England. And It faces France across the Strait of Dover, the narrowest part of the English Channel. The town is the administrative centre of the Dover District and home of the Port of Dover. The surrounding chalk cliffs are known as the White Cliffs of Dover. Any posts ref: anti-migrant, racists, slagging matches, doing down on Dover, will be removed. If you want to do that, there is FB.
