What's on in Winchelsea

Winchelsea sits right on the edge of the sea in East Sussex, where the wind off the Channel usually blows through the sand with a bit of a grumble. The Corporation Museum stands firm near the old harbour and has been telling local stories for decades without ever needing to shout about it. It is a place where history feels as comfortable as an armchair by the fire. There are plenty of markets and art stalls that pop up along the high street when the weather permits, letting you browse without rushing. Even on a dull afternoon, there is usually a gathering or a talk waiting to be found in one of the village halls. We keep the local calendar tidy so you do not have to hunt for ideas while watching the tide come in.
