The Pound East Sussex Map

About The Pound

The Pound, a quiet hamlet in East Sussex, offers a glimpse into a landscape shaped by generations of husbandry. It lies 6.5 km west-south-west of Battle (from Battle: bearing 255°T, OS grid TQ 683 143), and is situated north-west of Ninfield village. The gentle slopes around The Pound, often softened by a particular quality of afternoon light that seems to linger on the distant Rother Levels, speak of a long agricultural past. Here, the hedgerows are substantial things, often framing fields where the scent of turned earth can still be caught on a soft breeze. The houses, mostly built of brick and tile, are arranged with a certain unassuming order, as if they grew organically from the soil rather than being imposed upon it. A sense of quietude pervades The Pound, a feeling amplified by the infrequent passage of vehicles on its narrow lanes, allowing the sounds of birdsong and the rustle of leaves to dominate the sonic landscape.
