Rye Harbour

 I had never been to Rye Harbour. even as a child on various holidays in the area, we only ever went to Rye town, and I have been there several times since.  So I was really keen to visit  Rye Harbour.  The harbour is some distance from Rye itself, it being an area where the sea is receding.   There is a small village which we drove through, but the area is now mainly a bird sanctuary, and very flat.   










This is the famous red-roofed hut - I think now used for storage. We couldn't find much information about it, but Ann assured us it was famous!

Where we had the most delicious lunch.   
















More soon.

Polesden Lacey is the first National Trust property to be open every day  (apart from 'staff training' days which turned out to be an AGM at Dorking Halls!).   It seems they are now doing tours o
