Pavements and Cobbled Streets

Rye is famous for its cobbles but they need constant attention.  Modern vehicles, especially with power steering, tend to loosen them.  Replacing the cobbles after such damage or following works on underground services tests the skills of the repairer.

Sometimes the result is concrete with a few cobbles pushed in like currants in a bun, or concrete is poured over everything.  There must be sufficient cobbles for the job and they must all be of similar size and colour.
