Rye Harbour Nature Reserve is a wonderful and diverse area: a coastline with a pebble beach, a sea wall, lakes from former gravel pits, sheep pastures, canals, inland former pebble beaches, the Rother estuary, bunker sites, various beach plants, and a diverse range of birds. The Discovery Centre offers information and a café with friendly service.

Old city gate in what must have been the former city wall.

Cozy, fresh and delicious.

A beautiful isolated spot on Romney Marsh. Apparently, many years ago, a senior cleric got lost in the marshes and fell into a swamp. He promised god that if he was saved, he would build a church on the spot... Guess what? he was saved by a passing villager and hey ho - here is the church!

Rye is beautiful and the Cantii Way provides a nice little tour of the town, but watch out for the cobbles - they can be slippery and will shake your teeth out!

Built in the 13th Century, this (and the nearby ditch) were part of Winchelsea's defences. In 1380, the French gained entry through this gate and gave the town a good, old-fashioned sacking!

The church was never finished - the tower is missing! Nevertheless, it is beautiful and forms the center of the village. The ancient cemetery is also beautifully planted and worth a visit!

Henry James wrote of Winchelsea, the town that once sought to rival the port of London: The abstractly laid out avenues and intersecting streets wander blindly in the summer evening light and disappear into legend and mystery. Ah yes, Winchelsea. Very, very quiet. Very pretty. And there really isn't much there, but it has charm!
