| Castle
Rising, was once a port, now the sea is further out!
There is a ruined Norman castle on a Roman site with
rooms and galleries reached by a dramatic staircase. Edward
III locked his mother up here, after killing her lover
(!). Large earthworks.
An attractive village, with the local church, St Lawrence,
having a famous Norman West porch, and also has some almshouses.
