Groombridge Place is currently closed but the walks around it are lovely. Plenty of streams and a pond with ducks and geese. There is also a train track that has old steen trains going past.

Groombridge Place is a beautiful country estate complete with sculpted formal gardens, a moated 17th-century manor house and over 200 acres of parkland. The house and its bridges were designed by Sir Christopher Wren, the same architect who re-designed St Paul's Cathedral after the Great Fire of London. Although the house is privately owned, you can visit the gardens. With a pirates playground and treetop walkway, it's also a great place for kids. The gardens are only open during summer.

Unlike many old mansions and castles, you get a fantastic view of Herstmonceux Castle as you cycle past. Don't just fly by though, take a moment to stop on the green overlooking the 15th century building and moat. It was one of the first in England to be built using bricks. Herstmonceux Castle has a happy tale to tell of resurrection. In 1777 it was all but demolished, with just the exterior walls left standing. Very unusually for buildings on this scale, in the early 19th century it was rebuilt. See the website for more details on opening and tours https://herstmonceux-castle.com/

The "castle" was built as a hunting lodge around 1450 and is said to be the oldest brick building in Sussex. Henry VIII supposedly stayed here while hunting in Ashdown Forest and pursuing Anne Boleyn at nearby Hever Castle. The house is no longer open to the public.

Founded in the 4th century as one of the last fortresses of the Roman 'Saxon coast', Pevensey Castle was also the landing site of William the Conqueror's army in 1066. It was later returned to use as an emergency stronghold in the Second World War - you can still see machine gun posts camouflaged in the castle walls. https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/pevensey-castle/

You could easily walk right on by, perhaps admire the church spire, and continue without ever realising there's a castle here. When you pause and look though, the remaining earthworks are easy to see, with origins harking back to before the Norman conquest. Low-lying, the castle relied on the waterways around to provide defence and Harold Godwinson is alleged to have spent the night here just before the Battle of Hastings. The castle itself was built after, when the manor was given to William de Warenne.

This extraordinary castle dates back to the 15th century and is one of the best examples of an Elizabethan brick castle.
