Romney Marsh

This afternoon's adventure took my cousin John and I to Dungeness and Rye for some fantastic fish & chips at The Pilot Inn and a search through the marsh for the Sound Mirrors that were constructed in the 1920's, prior to the invention and development of radar.  A brief stop in Rye on the way home provided a nice walk up through the village to the castle overlooking Romney Marsh.  This area was prominent in many of the stories I read as a child and the home of my favorite 18th century smuggler, Dr. Syn.
