Our visit to the historic Cinque port town of Rye in East Sussex
A walking tour around the historic medieval town of Rye in East Sussex.
We start the walk at the Landgate, the only remaining medieval city gate remaining, dating from 1329, and climb up East Cliff taking in the view over green fields that would have once been a coastline and a gateway to the English Channel.
Turning the corner, we head along Rye's High Street and take in the individual nature of the shops in Rye. We then detour up East Street to the English artist Paul Nash's home before rounding the corner into Market Street and discovering Rye's Townhall & Tourist Information Centre.
Passing the town hall we head up Lion Street to the Church of Saint Mary, Rye, and head around Church Square before moving on to the Ypres Tower, also known as Rye Castle, and taking in the views from the Gun Garden.
A stroll around the cobbled Church Square, passing homes built in the times of the Tudors, before heading onto West Street, where we find the National Trust Lamb House, once home to literary figures such as E.F. Benson & Henry James.
From here, we head down the beautiful Mermaid Street, said to be the most Instagrammed street in England, before popping into the historic Mermaid Inn and experiencing The Giant's Fireplace bar.
After our brief break, we continue down Mermaid Street to the Strand and its array of antiques & collectables stores in the former warehouses on Rye's quayside.
Finally, we return via The Mint and onto the High Street as the light starts to fall.
We complete our tour by returning to the Landgate at Dusk.

Benson’s Fun Fair Havant Park Vlog 10th April 2022
Join me as I make a quick visit to Havant Park to check out a Mark Benson and Sons Fun Fair
This is the 2nd Benson’s fair I’ve ever visited and the main draw for my is their incredible Waltzer which in my opinion is one of the best in the UK, there’s also a whole host of other great rides here too
This small fair was on its last day on my visit and again as usual like with a lot of other fairs it was very quiet which is always sad to see, these little fairs really need the support as it’s expensive to put them on an run them

Add me on TikTok:
Mount Benson is a mountain located on Vancouver Island, British Columbia located 9 km (5.6 mi) west of Nanaimo. There was road access to the peak, and it is popular with local hikers. It has good views of the Strait of Georgia and the mainland coast of British Columbia.
Formerly known as Wake-siah, this hill was named in 1859 by Captain Richards, RN, after his friend Alfred Robson Benson, MD, a physician from Whitby (Yorkshire), who was in the Hudson's Bay Company service 1857-62.
Most of the summit is flat with several small lakes, surrounded by clearcuts.
In July 2008 the Mount Benson Regional Park, comprising 212 ha (520 acres) on the upper north east slope of Mount Benson was established on land acquired in 2005 by the Regional District of Nanaimo and the Nanaimo and Area Land Trust. There is no road access to the park itself. Only a portion of the mountain is within the park not including the twin summits. The park area is the head waters of the Millstone River and, to the east, the Chase River.[5]
