Plough Inn
Dymchurch Road
The Plough Inn was built in 1776 and may have served as a Turnpike House on the newly improved Rye to Dover road.
With improved roads came faster mailcoaches, which stopped here. There were extensive stables so that the teams of horses could be changed. The front of the building was designed to allow travellers to step straight into their coach.
When the coaching era ended, the Plough became a wayside inn again, and the stables were used for storage.
