This is the main A286 from Rye. The village itself is some distance from its church which suggests that the population may have moved to another site during the Black Death. The most famous current resident is Paul McCartney who has a country estate to the south of the village. Past famous residents include the Liddell family whose daughter Alice was subject to a couple of books by Lewis Carroll. The big building to the right is Griffin Hall, a church.
