Your favourite Sussex Village ?

[Bluejuice]

Better than the SE25 (Selhurst, eek) and CR5 (Crawley) that I used to have.

CR5 is a Croydon postcode, Crawley still have RH postcodes I'm fairly sure

JUST SO YOU KNOW

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I'd have to say East Dean, because I could never say Seaford, and it's the nearest village to the walk down the meandering river at Cuckmere Haven

You've obviously never been to West Dean, which is hidden by Friston Forest but is, in fact, a nearer village to the walk down the meandering river at Cuckmere Haven.

And very nice it is too.

What about those villages on the Hastings Line where fate has decreed that their stations exists MILES away from the main centre.

Frant, Stonegate and Wadhurst.

 

[Bluejuice]

Oh, I forgot to nominate Barcombe

Is it East Dean or West Dean by Birling Gap? My Brother-in-law is a park ranger round there. Lovely place.

Oh poo. I probably meant West Dean.

But I only mentioned it for the fact that it is one of my favourite spots in Sussex, but which happens to not be in a village.

Oh right. I'm pretty sure I was CR5 when I lived in Coulsdon. I thought that it was covering Crawley area too. It may well be Croydon. Dunno, I left when I was 6, so I don't really remember.

Coulsdon has a Croydon postcode, Crawley has a Redhill postcode.

The only people who call Lindfield a village are its residents. To everyone else, it's a suburb of Haywards Heath.

I live near HH town centre, and have always considered Lindfield to be a village in it's own right.

And Stand Up, very nice!

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

Probably one of the most interesting villages Brightling, home of Mad Jack Fuller

Good call. Very interesting history to be found there.

 

[BensGrandad]

Findon, 5 pubs all top quality

Which 1 of the 5 is any good.

 

[ditchy]

Has to be Ditchling !!

 

[Pevenseagull]

Pevensey Bay

 

[Tom Bombadil]

Rusper is very nice except for the aircraft noise. Quite like Slaugham and Staplefield

 

[Spunk Bubble]

Alway had a soft spot for Steyning.

East Dean is nearer Birling Gap. West Dean is just north of Exceat and the Seven Sisters Country Park.

Buxted

Ah!

Thank you. I was getting confused with East Dean in West Sussex, East Dean in East Sussex and West Dean.

Winchelsea is hard to beat.

Pulborough has a lot going for it.

Horsted Keynes is a "proper" village with a village green ... shame about the burnt out shell of the Crown still there after all these years.

East Dean (the one in East Sussex).

Some of the villages under the Downs have that special olde worlde feel to them: Wilmington, Firle, Alciston.

Winchelsea is a TOWN, with its own mayor! Lovely though
