It was here where the governors of the Marsh resided (known as The Lord of the Level), and where swift justice was administered to anyone endangering the wellbeing of the Marsh. The Village was where Russell Thorndike wrote many of the infamous Dr Syn stories; fictitious yarns, inspired by local smuggling and law breaking on the Marsh and celebrated by the village bi annually in August. In sharp contrast to the Dr. Syn fables, Edith Nesbit, the famous children’s writer, also lived in Dymchurch. An enterprising author, she wrote a number of books including her most famous work – The Railway Children. The central slipway, accessed via the High Street, leads to the beautiful open sandy beach. Childrens' amusements and rides, accessed via the seawall and High Street, together with eating establishments and essential shops are waiting to help you enjoy your stay in the village.
