Poynings West Sussex Map

About Poynings

Poynings breathes the quiet dignity of the South Downs, a village cradled by rolling chalk hills. It lies 7.1 km north-north-east of Southwick (from Southwick: bearing 20°T, OS grid TQ 264 120), and is situated east-north-east of Fulking village. The ancient parish church of St. George, a venerable stone sentinel, stands as a quiet testament to centuries of devotion, its weathered walls absorbing the soft, diffused light that often bathes this corner of West Sussex. Fields of barley, rippling like a golden sea under the expansive sky, press close to the cluster of cottages and farmhouses, their roofs a patchwork of tile and thatch that whispers of enduring craftsmanship. The air here carries the faint, earthy scent of pasture and the distant bleating of sheep, a sound that has echoed across these slopes for generations. Poynings, in its understated beauty, offers a profound sense of peace, a place where the land itself seems to hold its breath.
