About

Northern Rother ward is a large, predominantly rural area covering villages and hamlets within the Rother district.

The Kent and East Sussex Railway heritage line operates through the ward, offering steam train journeys from Bodiam to Tenterden. This provides a distinct transport link and tourist attraction. The ward contains numerous public footpaths and quiet country lanes, connecting its scattered communities and providing access to the surrounding countryside.
