The old railway pier. The railway branched off in Rye and terminated here. It was used to carry flint and boulders collected from the shore to the potteries - used for glazing pottery.

I was born in Rye Harbour in 1949 and I can still identify some of the buildings today. The Martello was named "Enchantress". The large double gabled house to the right of the Martello was the Vicarage (now a B&B)and my parents old house is the second block back from the vicarage.
