About Southern Cross

Southern Cross breathes a quiet English air, a collection of lanes and dwellings where the sky seems to hold a particular, luminous quality. It lies 1.3 km east of Southwick (from Southwick: bearing 85°T, OS grid TQ 255 055). The very land here seems to slope with a gentle, almost imperceptible inclination towards the distant coast, a subtle reminder of the sea's proximity, though it remains unseen from the heart of Southern Cross. Here, the houses, many of them built of brick the colour of dried blood and shadowed by ancient yew trees, stand as stoic witnesses to the passage of years. A small, unassuming green, often dusted with the fine chalk of the South Downs, serves as the village's humble centre, a place where the murmur of daily life finds its quiet expression. The air, especially in the late afternoon, carries a faint, earthy scent, a perfume born of damp soil and well-tended gardens, mingling with the distant bleating of sheep from the surrounding fields.
