:-D I really like this! Who's that sleeping there below, and when will it stir? I was half expecting King Arthur or Francis Drake, but presumably they're resting elsewhere, somewhere with less risk of mine-related booming waking them early.
Do all places have gentlemen in baths whose job is to keep the goblins in? I would like to imagine one under our cliffs - but given the number of cliff-falls, I fear his bathroom would soon become embarrassingly exposed, and the goblins free to misbehave on the beaches below. We would also have a colony of troglodytic smugglers, who took refuge in a sea cave in 1765 and have been breeding there ever since, unaware of changes in the world outside.
