Crowborough Road, Ashdown Forest

Highlight • Viewpoint

This is one of my top three favourite roads in the Ashdown Forest. It provides some fantastic views over the surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and it has some nice lumps and curves for added interest. Sometimes there are sheep roaming the road between the cattle grids, helping to slow the traffic down.

Or a great deal going on here but it’s a lovely village green with duck pond, postbox, red telephone box and a bench, which might be the best but.
