Yes Rose, viewing Rye standing on its hill, with some of its original wall still standing.

I have an engraving of Rye from the 1800's when The Duke of Wellington was Warden of the Cinque Ports, hanging on the wall behind me.
I can imagine my GGGrandfather being one of the3 people in the foreground.
I have been to the spot where the artist must have stood ... unfortunately trees have grown up restricting the view.

I'm with you on that Amanda...you're not far away from me. :-)

Maybe that's why I love North Wales so much.

The mountains of Snowdonia. Whenever I go there, though it's been more than ten years now, I always feel like I'm coming home. No connection there whatsoever, but it still feels like home.

I just love looking a photos of the area.
