About

New Romney is a coastal town within the Folkestone and Hythe district, situated on the Romney Marsh. The area is characterised by its flat, expansive marshland landscape and a historic High Street that reflects its past as a significant Cinque Port. The town centre retains a traditional layout, with local businesses and services centred around the medieval church of St Nicholas.

The surrounding marshland is a distinct environment of drainage channels and wide skies, primarily used for sheep grazing. New Romney's unique history is evident in its location; the sea receded centuries ago, leaving the town now inland. The Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway, a miniature steam railway, has its main terminus here, connecting the town to other coastal settlements along the marsh.
