Lewes Castle is a medieval fortress originally known as Bray Castle. Positioned strategically, it commands a prominent location, overseeing the gap in the South Downs shaped by the River Ouse and surrounded by the towns of Lewes and Cliffe. The castle is perched on a man-made mound located just north of Lewes' high street, crafted from locally sourced limestone and flint blocks.

The original Ashcombe post mill was built in 1826 but was destroyed by strong winds in the early 20th century. Construction on this new mill was completed in 2010 and the design mirrors that of the original mill. Today, it's used for residential purposes and the excess electricity it generates is returned to the National Grid, making it an environmentally friendly reconstruction.

East Sussex's historic county town, Lewes is a lovely place to explore. There are many interesting old buildings, from the 16th-century timber-framed Anne of Cleves House to the impressive Lewes Castle, and many quirky boutiques, pubs and eateries. There are plenty of excellent walking options in the surrounding countryside, from river rambles along the Ouse to more hilly affairs on the South Downs.

Expect big vistas and colourful wildlife on any warm season jaunt along Swanborough Hill. Situated on the South Downs' chalk grassland ridge between Brighton and Lewes, you're afforded superb views out towards the Channel. Wildflowers proliferate on the wonderfully springy grassland and you might catch sight of the iconic chalkhill blue butterfly fluttering from flower to flower.
