This was the site of one of the earliest Roman forts built against Saxon raids on the 'Saxon Shore'. It later became the site of an Anglo-Saxon monastery before becoming the parish church for Reculver. The tall towers were built in a remodelling of the church in the 12th century.

Beautiful spot whatever the weather and great walk/cycle from here along the sea wall to Minnis Bay. This used to be the tip of England with a sea channel separating it from the Isle of Thanet.
