 New
Romney
|
|
| New
Romney, is just inland, on the Romney Marsh with small villages
around it. The town was once a Cinque Port until the river course
changed after some storms.
It was an important centre with five churches, only the Norman
St Nicholas survives'
Romney Marsh was a smugglers haunt, and battles were fought
with the Excise men. You can walk along the Royal Military
Canal as it crosses the Marsh from Rye to Hythe, it was built
to stop a possible Napoleonic invasion.
Take the road to the sea and you can go south to Dungeness
Head, or north along St Mary's Bay, both routes have large
beaches to explore and places to visit.
