Folkestone Chronicle 6-6-1868

Local News

During the thunderstorm of last Friday night part of the roadway in Bayle Street, in front of the Clarence Inn, fell in, and it required three or four loads of ballast to fill it in. Yesterday it again fell in, and in excavating it was found that an outlet from Bayle Pond running there had become stopped, and in an overflow had washed away the soil from under the stones. It has now been made safe.
