Tips

James Standing

The Mermaid Inn is one of England's oldest inns. The sign says that it was rebuilt in 1420. The oldest part of the building is the cellars, cut from rock, which date back to 1156. It brewed its own ale and charged a penny a night for lodging. When the French invaded Rye in 1377, the Inn burned down along with the rest of the town, although the cellar survived.

The street – which was then called Middle Street – was the main entrance into the town from the port which was at the bottom of the street. So the Inn was well used by merchants, mariners and tradesmen.

Look out for buildings with strange names such as 'the house opposite', 'the house with the seat' and 'the house with two front doors'.

Old houses line the streets to the left and right, the surface of which is made of pebbles.

The most beautiful street in beautiful Rye. It can get very busy, so it's best to visit in the morning or evening if you want good photos!
