Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St Mary's Church, Reculver. Reculver was the site of Regulbium fort, built by The Romans 2,000 years ago to guard the Wantsum channel which separated the Isle of Thanet from Kent. More than half the fort has been washed into the sea but the southern and eastern walls remain. The twin towers of Reculver are the remains of a mediaeval church and feature on navigation charts as an important landmark. The large stones (called Hornblende Gneiss, imported from Sweden) along the beach are a recent effort to prevent further erosion.
