20의 어크필드가지 명소 & 주요 장소

The cafe has re-opened Tuesday to Saturday closing at 4.30pm. Had the coffee and polenta cake - very yummy.

Amazing trail along an old railway line route, it is smooth rolling and very enjoyable for all ages and abilities, there is an unfinished section that can also be ridden but be weary of random fences you may have to traverse.

First cycle from south to north. The way back is then downhill. Quite a boring trip without much view of the landscape

These old windmills are the best proof that people were clever enough a number of centuries ago - long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions that resulted from it - to harness the power of the elements for their own purposes: no human or animal muscle power is needed for the grinding process, but the wind captured by the wings is enough to drive the heavy millstones and thus, for example, to grind flour from grain (grain mills) or to press oil from olives (oil mills). Often they are only technical and historical evidence of a long tradition of craftsmanship, because most of the old mills have been abandoned over time.

This 14 mile surfaced path through the Sussex countryside is mostly traffic free and is a safe route for walkers and cyclists of all ages, forming part of the National Cycle Network – route 21. The picturesque trail follows the former ‘Cuckoo Line’ railway track and stretches from Heathfield to Shinewater Park. It passes through Horam, Hailsham and Polegate. So nice to ride and just listen to the sound of bird song without the hum of traffic.

This windmill, built in the 16th century, is an open trestle post mill, of which only five remain in the country, with this being the only one still operational.

Sadly the cafe has closed permanently. Shame, it was a great pit stop
