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.

Splaynes Green Village Green

Highlight • Viewpoint

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.

The Griffin Inn Garden View of Sheffield Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great views from the garden, overlooking Sheffield Park, also known as the Sussex Savannah. The BBQ in the summer is particularly good.

Fletching Village and St. Andrew & St. Mary the Virgin Church

Highlight • Historical Site

Fletching is a really pleasant old Sussex village with many historical buildings, a couple of good pubs, village stores and a church. If you know where to look from, the village has some impressive views over Sheffield Park (and the Sussex Savannah), arguably some of the finest views in the county!
