The Rye and Camber Tramway was an English railway in East Sussex. It was of 3 ft narrow gauge,
The railway was constructed between January and July 1895 and ran entirely on private land. It was the first designed by consulting engineer Holman F. Stephens, who went on to build and run small railways all over the Country.
The line was built to convey golfers to the Rye Golf Club and ran from Rye station to the golf club. In 1908 the first extension to Camber Sands station was opened and the intermediate station renamed Golf Links. Camber terminal was moved to a more accessible site and a tea hut was opened at the end of summer 1938, but this only used for a few months as the war intervened the next year.
Although initially quite successful, increasing competition from automobile and bus transport eventually caused the tramway to enter a gradual economic decline, as was the case with many small railways. Passenger service was ended at the outbreak of World War II but it was extensively used by the Government to convey parts for the P.L.U.T.O. (Pipe Line Under The Ocean) project for which a special siding leading to a new pier near Golf Links Station was constructed by Canadian troops.
The line was in such a run-down a condition by the end of the war that it was deemed irrecoverable and was sold for scrap in 1947. The Rye & Camber Tramways Co. Ltd was liquidated in February 1949.

INBOUND GATWICK AND LANDING AT VALANCE AIRSTRIP
LANDING AT VALANCE AIRSTRIP TO VISIT GATWICK AVIATION MUSEUM. This museum is definitely worth a visit. You must get permission and briefing from Gatwick Director and the owner of Valance strip before setting off. The strip is 200 meters north of Gatwick runway 26. in Class Delta airspace with continuous commercial traffic taking off and landing.
some comments received from viewers are shown below:-
Hilarious -- and bloody good fun -- well done !!
You've successfully distracted me from my deeply serious work by your irresistible video, and only made me even more frustrated to be sitting at a desk....And what a fantastic strip, where if you land short you really, really are in the shit.
Awesome. Very impressive.... And no go around !
Brilliant!!
Good instructive video Deepak. It compares with the ones made by NATS for flying round the controlled airspace of London!
I couldn't believe how close Valance is to Gatwick. Unbelievable!

History
The history of Dymchurch began with the gradual build-up of the Romney Marsh.[2]
New Hall was rebuilt in 1575 after an earlier wooden structure was destroyed in a fire. It was used as a court room for the Romney Marsh area. The head magistrate was known as Leveller of the Marsh Scotts. It was there that the so-called Scot tax[3] was introduced, levied on residents to fund maintenance of the sea wall. Those directly outside the boundaries and thus not eligible for the tax were said to have got away Scott Free. Residents with land were required to grow thorn bushes for building of the wall, as thorn twigs were believed impervious to sea water. Failure resulted in an ear being cut off.
During the 17th and 18th centuries, smuggling was rife all along the south-east coast of England. Due to its remote location, Romney Marsh and the surrounding areas were amongst the busiest locations for illicit trade. Inspiration from this gave rise to Dymchurch being the setting of the Doctor Syn novels, based on smuggling, by Russell Thorndike. Every two years a celebration of the novels is held, usually on August Bank Holiday.
Dymchurch played a significant rôle in the Anglo-French Survey (1784–1790), which linked the Royal Greenwich Observatory with the Paris Observatory using trigonometry. There were two base-lines for the English part of the survey, on Hounslow Heath and on Romney Marsh. The Romney Marsh base-line extended from Ruckinge to High Nook, on the sea-wall near Dymchurch.
Dymchurch Martello towers
Main article: Martello tower
Several Martello towers were built in the nineteenth century as part of an Empire-wide coastal defence programme: most have since fallen into the sea or become dilapidated. Tower 23 was restored externally in the early 1970s and is currently a private residence. Tower 24 has undergone renovation and using Tower 23 used as a guide: in 1969 it became the first Martello tower to be opened to the public and remains as a museum of Martello Towers, owned by English Heritage. Tower 25 is possibly the only empty tower that is regularly maintained.[4]
Dymchurch Redoubt
Main article: Dymchurch Redoubt
Two redoubt forts were constructed into the south coast Martello chain to act as supply depots for the local Martellos, and were originally described as eleven-gun towers. A four-gun tower was originally proposed at Dymchurch, but this idea was revised at the Rochester conference of 1804. Dymchurch Redoubt was built between 1806 and 1809 to the same specifications as its Eastbourne counterpart, although Dymchurch does not have any caponiers. A caponier is a type of fortification structure. The word originates from the French word caponnière. It is a type of fortification structure which allows firing along the bottom of a dry moat that surrounds the main fortress.
