Excerpt from Tales of Rye Town
Handful of trucks, halts at the foot Of a sleepy mound. With the poor approach suggested by modern workmen's cottages and the cheap masonry of a station the beauty Of the upper roofs on the hill is but dimly apprehended. Not yet, not until the iron roadway is left and the height below Play den is scaled, do you see Rye wholly, as she lies like.
