Fans of AA Milne's 'Winnie the Pooh' books will love visiting poohsticks bridge. Locals say this is the location where AA Milne first played poohsticks with his son, Christopher.

Although this is not the original, as the first, called Posingford Bridge and built in 1907, fell into disrepair as so many people visited and walked on it. This bridge was erected in 1999 in the same style and was built with help from a grant from Disney.

Make sure to carry some sticks with you to the bridge so you aren't disappointed!

This is in a beautiful corner of Ashdown Forrest. Be sure to pick up sticks along the way to play a game of Pooh Sticks - there aren't any near the bridge itself!
