Winchelsea
Winchelsea is a small town in East Sussex, England, on the edge of the Romney Marsh. Originally a seaport, it was devastated by massive flooding in 1287, then after rebuilding, the English Channel retreated, leaving it inland, like nearby Rye.
The town, pillaged by French marauders in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, is the smallest in Britain to have its own mayor
Winchelsea, Victoria, is also a small town in Australia.
