Rye is an English town near the coast in East Sussex. In the centre, cobbled lanes like Mermaid Street are lined with medieval, half-timbered houses. The redbrick Lamb House was once owned by writer Henry James. Nearby, the tower of the Norman St. Mary’s Church overlooks the town. The 14th-century Ypres Tower, which formed part of Rye’s defences, is now Rye Castle Museum, with paintings and displays on local history.
Rye is a small town in the non-metropolitan county of East Sussex, within the historic County of Sussex, England, which stands approximately two miles from the open sea and is at the confluence of three rivers: the Rother, the Tillingham and the Brede. In medieval times, however, as an important member of the Cinque Ports confederation, it was at the head of an embayment of the English Channel and almost entirely surrounded by the sea.
Those historic roots and its charm make Rye a tourist destination, and much of its economy is based on that: there are a number of hotels, guest houses, B&Bs, tea rooms and restaurants, as well as other attractions, catering for the visitor. There is a small fishing fleet, and Rye Harbour has facilities for yachts and other vessels.
Rye, being part of the Cinque Ports Confederation and a bastion against invasion on the Channel Coast, has always had close links with the crown. It was King Edward III and the Black Prince who defeated the Spanish in Rye Bay in 1350 in the battle of Les Espagnols sur Mer. But it was Queen Elizabeth I who gave the town the right to use the title Rye Royal following a visit in 1573. King Charles I described Rye as The cheapest sea-towne for the provision of fish for our house. George I whilst returning from visiting his continental possessions in 1726 was grounded on Camber Sands and spent the next four days in Rye, being accommodated at Lamb House
Rye stands at the point where the sandstone high land of the Weald reaches the coast. The medieval coastline (see map above), with its large bay, enabled ships to come up to the port. The original course of the River Rother then reached the sea at Romney to the northeast. Storms in the English Channel in the thirteenth century, coupled with reclamation of the bay, brought huge quantities of gravel through longshore drift along the coast, blocking the port entrance. The course of the river has also changed over the centuries so that Rye now stands on the river at the point of its confluence with the River Tillingham and the River Brede, whereas the river flows southward into Rye Bay. River Rother and the environs of Rye Harbour are managed and maintained by the Environment Agency.[24] The Rivers Brede and Rother also form part of the Royal Military Canal between Winchelsea and Iden Lock. The town is part of the remotest and least populated area of southeastern England, on the edge of Romney Marsh and within three kilometres of the coast.
A part of the town, but only a minority of the housing stock, lies on the original rocky heights (the Citadel) and contains the historic buildings including St Mary's parish church, the Ypres Tower (part of the Town Wall), Lamb House and many of the houses on Mermaid Street, Watchbell Street, and Church Square. The main road skirts the town to the south after crossing the river; Winchelsea Road leads to New Winchelsea Road, formerly Royal Military Road, which runs parallel to the River Brede before leaving the town boundary. The houses along New Winchelsea Road date from the 1930s, built on the excavations from the Royal Military Canal. The gardens run down to the river, with fishing and boating rights. Most of Rye's inhabitants live outside the Citadel area.

2006 Rye
Rye is een plaats in het bestuurlijke gebied Rother, in het Engelse graafschap East Sussex. De plaats telt 4.600 inwoners. Rye werd als vestingstadje op een heuvel gebouwd als verdediging tegen de Fransen. Het lag aan zee en was als havenstad lid van de Cinque Ports, een samenwerkingsverband van de Zuid-Engelse havens. Intussen zijn de haven en de baai verzand en ligt het stadje een drietal kilometer van de zee vandaan. Men kan zich een idee vormen van de geschiedenis in de smalle straatjes en bij een bezoek aan enkele historische gebouwen, onder andere het kerkje van St. Mary, de Ypres Tower, de Mermaid Inn en het Lamb House. In dat laatste woonde van 1898 tot 1916 de Amerikaanse schrijver Henry James.

UK - Floral gift arrives after Linda's death
T/I: 10:59:22
Residents in the picturesque UK village of Rye in East Sussex said on Tuesday (21/04) that they were devastated when flowers ordered by Linda McCartney before her death arrived at a charity she helped set up. Gordon Camble, former chairman of Rye Health and Care Limited, said the flowers, which were delivered every month under Linda's orders, arrived on Monday (20/04). Linda and her husband Paul campaigned to set the Rye Memorial Care Centre up after the hospital in the village was closed down in health cuts introduced by the former Conservative government.
When the centre was opened she also donated a set of stained glass windows which feature some of her photgraphic work depicting a swan and a leaf.

According to eastbourneherald.co.uk...#TheLambInn in Old Town – one of the oldest pubs in the country – is steeped in history and cellars and a crypt beneath the public bar date back to 1180.
Downstairs at the Lamb is what is left of the monastic house, a Norman vaulted chamber together with some tunnels leading from the Lamb to the Parsonage by the side of St Mary’s Church.
