That is the best map online i have ever seen.  Thank you so much.  Do you have a link for any earlier ones.    Henry's son Philip (1787-1854) and Edward(1790-1875) emigrated to the States in 1818.  So my last tie to Rye ends with Henry's death in 1832.  He died in a carriage accident crossing the bridge to East Guleford.    Wow so pleased with new map.   LizR

I think this link will take you to a page on the same site which then gives you a greater choice of towns to view

There was a post on the Welsh boards about the Library of Scotland maps.  I totally forgot about it.  Been searching the vale of Glamorgan.      LizR

Looking at the map that HL posted the link for then the Rye Mill is on the river as depicted by the postcards in the following part of Rye.

Hi swebby, the links you've posted are indeed for Rye Mill, which still exists...it's in Rye, stands on the banks of the River Tillingham and is now a B and B.

Playden is a village about a mile from Rye and the Mill.....in fact I think there was more than one....is no longer there.

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Rye,+East+Sussex+TN31/@50.9504344,0.7273071,19z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x47dee0253a3551b9:0x1d196c33cfd9fa40

this one is not a post mill - a modern view of it here.

And I'm afraid it's not the one in the other map, since it's down by the railway in Rye rather than closer to Playden.

Mmmm.....I'm probably misunderstanding Sean...

Did the 1785 records show that Robert Clark owned Rye Mill? If so, how fantastic Liz. It would be great for you to come and stay in the B and B  ;D

That's a great photo Nell. I know I have lots somewhere too  :)
