Dengemarsh Dengemarsh No Data

Description


Located West along the coast from Dungeness, Dengemarsh is - if anything - a stranger location. The land here was reclaimed from the sea in the 8th century, but little is now here other than the back of an Army firing range, a coast guard lookout station, the back of Dungeness Nuclear power plant and the Dengemarsh Sewer. The latter actually being the route through which the Romney Marshes are kept drained and dry taking the excess water down and out to the sea here, rather than an actual human waste sewer. It's a very weird location, accessed by a very weird and bumpy road

Charge




Getting There

The 102 bus runs hourly from Rye to Lydd taking about 30 minutes to make the journey. From Lydd it's a 4 mile walk down a single track road that then turns into an unpaved road and then a shingle track to Dengemarsh beach - it's a long and boring walk, so best done on a bike.
