LIMME, (Kent) near Hithe, and 4 m. from Romney, was formerly a port, till choaked up by the sands; and though it is
thereby become a poor T. yet it has the horn and mace, and other tokens left of its ancient grandeur, and used to be the
place where the Ld. warden of the Cinque-Ports was sworn, at his entrance upon his office. The Roman road from Canterbury,
called Stane-street, ended here, and from the brow of its hill may be seen the ruinous Roman walls almost at the bottom of
the marshes; and Roman coins have been found in the neighbourhood.
