Rye is a town and civil parish in the Rother area, in East Sussex, England, 2 miles from the sea at the convergence of three rivers: the Rother, the Tillingham and also the Brede. In middle ages times, as an essential member of the Cinque Ports confederation, it was at the head of an embayment of the English Channel, and also virtually entirely bordered by the sea. At the 2011 census, Rye had a population of 4,773. Its historical association with the sea has actually consisted of supplying ships for the service of the Crown in time of war, and being associated with smuggling. The infamous Hawkhurst Gang used its old inns The Mermaid Inn and The Olde Bell Inn, which are stated to be linked to each various other by a secret passage. Those historical roots and also its appeal make it a tourist destination, with hotels, guest houses, B&B s, tea rooms, and also dining establishments. It has a small angling fleet, as well as Rye Harbour has facilities for yachts as well as other vessels.
