About

Southern Rother ward encompasses a significant rural portion of the Rother district, stretching inland from the historic Cinque Port town of Rye. Its landscape is characterised by the flat, open expanse of the Romney Marsh, a distinct area of reclaimed wetland crisscrossed by drainage channels known as 'dykes'. The ward includes several villages, such as Playden and Iden, which are set amidst agricultural land primarily used for sheep grazing and arable farming.

The area's geography is defined by the courses of the River Rother and its tributaries, which shape the low-lying terrain. A network of narrow, often straight roads connects the scattered settlements and isolated farmsteads. The environment supports wildlife associated with wetland habitats, and the expansive skies and wide horizons create a particular sense of space. The historic Royal Military Canal marks part of the ward's northern boundary.
