The Rother <a href="/wiki/Estuary" title="Estuary">estuary</a> was always difficult to navigate, with many shallow channels and sandbanks.

Another possible explanation for these place-names is a result of the effects of <a href="/wiki/Longshore_drift" title="Longshore drift">longshore drift</a>, which disperses shingle and sand deposits, from west to east, with heavier stones accumulating in the area known as Greatstone, while far smaller shingle is to be found in great quantities at Littlestone.

The station is about three-quarters of a mile east of the historic town centre. </p><p>New Romney was once serviced by the New Romney and Littlestone-On-Sea railway station which was part of the Lydd Line. The station was sited halfway between New Romney and Littlestone-on-Sea. As built the station had two platforms and a small goods yard with four sidings, a goods shed, cattle dock, coal wharves, end loading dock, water tower and other small buildings. The up platform was rarely used in latter years other than as a livestock loading dock. The station was originally called New Romney & Littlestone with on-Sea being added in October 1888. In 1927 a single line extension was built with an unprotected level crossing to an exchange siding with the adjacent Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway station on the opposite side of the Station Road; it was used to deliver coal to that railway. The signal box was taken out of use in the 1950s and goods service was withdrawn in 1964. The station was closed in 1967 and replaced with a bus service. </p><p>New Romney is easily accessible by road, sitting astride the <a href="/wiki/A259_road" title="A259 road">A259</a> (which runs from <a href="/wiki/Folkestone" title="Folkestone">Folkestone</a> to <a href="/wiki/Havant" title="Havant">Havant</a>).
