There are many towns and villages who lay claim to this 'honour'.

There is no 'official' rule for calculating distances from the sea so many villages 'bend' the non-existent rules to suit their claims.
Measuring from how far salt water travels into and out of river estuaries makes a huge difference to inland distances and therefore claims from towns and villages.
After all if you decided to stop off for a snack in a cafe of a pie and a pint in a pub, wouldn't you prefer to do it in a pub that claims to be as far from the sea as you can be or would you just stop at the place down the road.
