Strand House, The Strand, Winchelsea The Parish Workhouse of the Sussex town of Winchelsea known as the "Old Poor Houses". ==The Town of Winchelsea - One of England's largest ports == In the 13th century, old Winchelsea was one of England's most prosperous ports, particularly involved in the wine trade from Gascony but was lost to the sea. The new town of Winchelsea was laid out in 1283 in the form of continental bastides town as a commercial centre for the importing of wine. The port was moved to the area of flat land, below the cliffs along the Strand. It was a river port, at the mouth of the river Brede which flowed out into a large lagoon, protected by a sandbar from the open waters of the Channel.〔Winchelsea〕 The port connected with the town by a road that went up Strand Hill, through Strand Gate to the market place. The returning route went through the Landgate or Pipewell Gate, down Ferry Hill and into the port area.〔New Winchelsea Sussex. A Medieval Port Town. David and Barbara Martin. English Heritage 2004.〕
