Next to the town well in Castle Street is one of the most impressive private dwellings in Winchelsea, the Armoury a name dating from the time of the Napoleonic War garrison. The present appearance of the building is largely the result of rebuilding at the end of the 19th century by Miss Maud Peel, niece of Sir Robert Peel, and hides the remains of one of the best preserved houses dating from the foundation of the town in th13th Century. The town well was used until 1895
