The port of Rye : by Neil Hawke. "The purpose of this work is to set out the nature and extent of Rye's role as a port, trading with the world from 1837 to the present, paying special attention to the vessels that sustained that trade. It was in 1837 that Victoria ascended to the throne. Along the way an opportunity will be taken to look at the port's proud history as a shipbuilding centre which is well represented by the picture on the front of this monograph, showing the schooner Mary Ann, built at Rye in 1851."--Provided by the publisher. 2019. • PAMPHLET • 1 copy available.

Conway traversed the globem making many trans-Atlantic crossings and five journeys to Australia; in 1860 the ship barely survived a storm close to Madeira.
