To the north of this field is Baldwin's Sewer constructed between 1152-67 by a tenant of the Priory of Canterbury who had owned this land from the 9th Century onwards who granted any amount of land he could enclose and drain against the sea which would have been immediately behind the photographer at that time. Taken from Clubb Lane.
