Friend Dick suggested we visit Rye whilst in the area, and we weren't disappointed.
In medieval times Rye lay on the channel coast, one of the Cinque Ports used for trade and defence
Nowadays silting rivers have meant the town is a couple of miles away from the coast, but water is everywhere to be seen
These seagulls obviously delighted in being photographed from different angles!
Fascinating cladded buildings surrounded the old harbour
The Landgate is the last remaining of two gates built to defend Rye from invading forces
Back to Hastings and there's no escaping its famous battle...
...but there's always a welcoming drink back at the caravan.
