About

The area around Hamstreet and the Isle of Oxney is defined by its distinct flatness, shaped by ancient river channels and reclaimed marshland. Hamstreet itself functions as a local service village, with a linear centre following the old road. The landscape is predominantly agricultural, characterised by open fields and drainage ditches that trace the historic course of the River Rother. This creates a spacious, low-lying environment where the sky dominates the horizon.

The Isle of Oxney is not a true island but a raised sandstone plateau, clearly separated from the surrounding Romney Marsh by the former riverbeds. Its perimeter features small, wooded slopes marking the old coastline. Villages like Stone-in-Oxney and Wittersham are situated on this higher, drier ground, offering views across the expansive marshland below. The Royal Military Canal forms a clear southern boundary, a straight artificial waterway originally dug for defence.
