Welcome to Rye, a Medieval gateway to England. This ancient Cinque Port town, with its magical light and atmosphere, has beguiled and enchanted Kings, Queens, artists and writers over the centuries. The people of Rye, pirates, merchants, smugglers, sailors, boat-builders, craftsmen and women and fisher-folk have lived their lives on this little hill on the marsh. They have endured storm, attack and the retreat of the sea, and left us their inheritance, which we can share on our walk around this ancient town.
