Rye in East Sussex Town Guide

Old Businesses


A few months ago, whilst searching my family tree, I came across a list of business in Rye in the 1800’s, some of my family were on this list. I cannot find the site it was on, has anyone got any ideas. I am researching Walkers / Hull / Dive. They lived Rope Walks, if anybody has any info, please get in touch. Thanks.
