St Thomas the Martyr, Winchelsea, E.Sussex.UK
Set in the centre of Winchelsea is the church of St Thomas the martyr (Thomas Beckett, archbishop of Canterbury) Structurally it is nothing special with so much of the church destroyed, but internally, see other videos(stain glass + internal), it is a wonderful place to visit.
The Old town of Winchelsea- St. Thomas the Martyr Church

The famous Stain glass windows of St Thomas Winchelsea, Sussex. uk
From the outside as you approach the church it is not very impressive. Looking more like the ruins of a priory you are taken aback as you enter the small enterance door. The windows are rightly famous as they are AMAZING!
Winchelsea
Today, Winchelsea sits quietly on its hill, gazing across marshland at the now-distant sea, but all around the village are the evocative remnants of past glory: the Church of St Thomas the Martyr; three medieval gates standing guard against long-departed foes; and beneath the broad streets, the hidden wine cellars of the old port town.
The sense of tranquility Winchelsea enjoys, owes much to the surrounding landscape of the High Weald, it is a place of green valleys, wooded hills, open grazing marshes, coastal views and winding rivers.
After the Norman Conquest, Winchelsea was of great importance in cross-Channel trade (acting in particular as an entrepôt for London) and as a naval base. In the 13th century, it became famous in the wine trade from Gascony.
Winchelsea has endured over 700 turbulent years of history. 'Old Winchelsea' was claimed by the sea after the savage storm of 1287 and the new town (present day Winchelsea) was built on Iham Hill under the royal patronage of Edward I. It was favoured as one of the cinque ports where the English fleet under the King's command would gather for royal duties or military action. With the mouth of the River Brede lapping at the foot of the hill, a harbour was built and Winchelsea grew swiftly on timber exports and wine imports in the 14th century, as well as on fishing, smuggling and piracy.
For a time the town thrived, but misfortune was soon to plague the residents again: in 1348 the Black Death arrived and many lives were lost. Less than a century after the harbour was built the tide turned once again, the sea began to retreat and the harbour and fortunes of the town fell into decline as merchants moved away. French and Spanish raids further depleted the populace despite the fortified gates and ramparts, and Winchelsea never fully recovered. Indeed the threat of invasion remained during the Napoleonic war, when the Royal Military Canal was built as a strategic defence for this vulnerable section of the south coast.
Since then the town has gradually retreated from the pace of the modern world. Today, echoes of its colourful history still resonant from the ancient buildings and stone town gates whilst traces of the ancient boundary ditches etched into the surrounding landscape hint at its former eminence.
To find the fickle tide,
By dry and sea-forgotten walls,
Our ports of stranded pride.

Church of St Thomas the Martyr
Named | Thomas: The Martyr (Sample Clip)
Named: The Disciples
In the last few minutes of his life, Thomas reflects on his journey from doubter to faithful apostle who spread the gospel around the world.
We often think of the disciples as larger-than-life icons of the faith. But in truth they were ordinary men who struggled with their brokenness, much as we do. The Disciples examines the lives of six men whom God used in powerful ways—and how he brings that same transformative power to us today.
Named is a 6-week small-group resource like no other. Through imaginative retellings of familiar stories from Scripture, powerful videos, and thought-provoking discussion questions, small groups can explore the mysteries of faith together and learn how God's story finds its place in each of them.
We Were Born To Go _Winchelsea Cathedral in Winchelsea UK
The Wesley Tree is just around the corner and is a cutting from the old tree that blew down in 1927. It was under the original tree on 7th October 1791 that Mr Wesley preached his final open air sermon. The Anniversary of the Chapel is marked by a special service each July and this includes some good hearty singing under the tree. Rye fish market and Winchelsea cathedral, where John Wesley preached his last open air sermon, under this tree

The Ancient Town of Winchelsea
Alex Askaroff Presents a quick ride around Winchelsea in East Sussex.
Don't forget my amazing selection of books on Amazon with SEVEN No1 New Releases,
Winchelsea, built high on a hill, was a fortified English town and one of the largest storage depots for wine in the country. Now, as the sea has retreated (and left it high and dry), it survives as a quaint picture box tourist destination. Come with me and drive through the ancient battlements, by St Thomas the Martyr Church (where Spike Milligan is laid to rest) and to an ancient landmark .

Kick the Frenchman's Head (a game played in Winchelsea every Boxing Day)
Every Boxing Day this game is played at Winchelsea. There are no rules! Three teams play, and they have to try and get the 'Frenchman's head' (actually a bag of cloths) into a goal (a metal bin). The game's been played in one form or another for hundreds of years, as you can read about on the town website (link above). Oh, and by the way, people in Winchelsea are perfectly friendly towards the French! The name of the game comes from hundreds of years ago when the French frequently raided the town, even burning it to the ground at one point.
