Rye Castle Museum

The Museum is at two locations. The 14th century Ypres Tower has good views over what was once the largest and most important harbour in the country. The main exhibition on Rye's history is at 3 East Street, including ever-so-high stilts used in hop picking, and Rye’s old fire engine complete with leather hoses and battered lead-lined water buckets.
