Summary edit

Description The church of St Nicholas was completed by the time of the Black Death in 1348/49. The church and the main part of the village are widely separated. The main part of the village used to be near the church, however, local tradition has it that due to the number of plague victims buried in the churchyard, the remaining inhabitants sought a healthier site on which to live! A factor in favour of a move to the north-east was probably the increasing importance of the ridge road as a way to Rye, one of the ancient Cinque Ports.
