City of London

Jamie and Emma welcome you to the City of London. We pride ourselves on using the freshest produce from around the South Coast. Everything is made in-house from the bread, to the chutneys and even the ice-cream. Originally called 'The Seawall Tavern', this was a 16th Century inn. During a storm in 1775, a ship called City of London was blown ashore and collided with the inn, causing substantial damage. The ship's figurehead and timbers were used to repair the building, and the name was changed to reflect this.

Reviews

Martello Tower No.24

Martello Tower No. 24 in Dymchurch High Street was one of 74 towers built along the south coast between 1805 and 1812 to resist the threatened French invasion. It has been restored to its original design and contains replica gunpowder barrels and a 24 pounder muzzle-loading cannon on the gun platform. Of all the Martello Towers remaining, Martello24 is closest to its original condition and it can been seen as it was when occupied by the military 1806.

Lace embroiidered tablecloths, china tea cups and saucers, a beautiful white Welsh dresser, pastel walls with low white ceilings makes this an enjoyable and pleasant place to visit. Opening times are: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday: 10am to 4pm: Saturday and Sunday : 11am to 4pm. Closed on Tuesday.
