The patron saint of this church: Saint Andrew belongs to the circle of the twelve apostles whom Jesus Christ called to follow him. However, in biblical accounts, he is usually somewhat overshadowed by his far more famous brother, Saint Peter. The Gospels present the calling of the two brothers in different ways. According to the Gospel of John (John 1:40-42), Andrew is called first (together with another unnamed disciple). Later, he tells his brother that he has found the Messiah. The feast day of Saint Andrew is celebrated on November 30th in all major Christian denominations. The X-shaped white "St. Andrew's Cross," on which he was executed, forms the national flag of Scotland against a blue background and has also been incorporated into the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

Beautiful little village with a couple of great shops for refuelling

I can recommend visiting the Long Man of Wilmington (it isn't an ancient Fertility symbol more an artificial 17th century tourist attraction, more fool, the faux American witches I saw there several years ago). However I can't recommend leaving the Long Man pub down the road, at 7.30pm, in January, several days after it snowed and then several days of negative temperatures froze it in place, and then climb straight up past it. There is a path but we decided that would take far too long to divert to it. It was not surprisingly steep.

About the patronage of this church: Saint ANDREW is one of the twelve apostles that Jesus Christ called to follow him. However, in the biblical accounts he is usually somewhat overshadowed by his much more famous brother: Saint Peter. In the Gospels we find the calling of the two siblings presented in different ways. According to the text of the Gospel of John (John 1:40-42), Andrew is called first (together with another disciple whose name is not mentioned). Later he tells his brother that he has found the Messiah. The feast of Saint Andrew in the calendar of saints is on November 30th in all major Christian denominations. The X-shaped white "St. Andrew's Cross" on which he was executed forms the national flag of Scotland against a blue background and has also found its way into the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

This is quite a challenging walk, we got to the Birling Gap car park early to set off , please note that the cafe opens at 9.30am. The views were breathtaking, everywhere you looked. We stopped at the visitors centre and refuelled and continued the walk, again every footpath had a view, we can across another little cafe stop and continued on. My husband and I both agreed this has been our number one walk and will definitely be doing it again 😊

This is a beautiful nature trail. The path by the Cuckmere river is good and where the trail meets the Cuckmere river is a fantastic photo spot opportunity. The views up and down the river is gorgeous. This is especially so on a nice day like we had.

Our Dan and T1 have given a great account of this lovely little church, and I fear I will only be treading on the toes of highlight giants if I add any more antecedent information on this church. With this being said, there are numerous park benches in the vicinity to rest a weary hiker's butt on, and there is a rather interesting green ‘bomb’ or mine on the edge of the village green!

Beautiful Alfriston is a local hub for walks up and down the Cuckmere valley and across to the Long Man of Wilmington. A very quaint and beautiful village.
