Places to see in ( Steyning - UK )
Steyning is a small rural town and civil parish in the Horsham District of West Sussex, England. It is located at the north end of the River Adur gap in the South Downs, four miles north of Shoreham-by-Sea. The smaller villages of Bramber and Upper Beeding constitute, with Steyning, a built-up area at this crossing-point of the river.
Steyning has existed since Anglo-Saxon times. Legend has it that St. Cuthman built a church, at one time dedicated to him, later to St Andrew, and now jointly to St Andrew and St Cuthman, where he stopped after carrying his mother in a wheelbarrow. Several of the signs that can be seen on entering Steyning bear an image of his feat. King Alfred the Great's father, Ethelwulf of Wessex, was originally buried in that church, before being transferred to Winchester – a Saxon grave slab (possibly his) remains in the church porch.
The Steyning Line railway from London to Shoreham arrived in Steyning in 1861 and a station was opened to serve the town, see the black line and station in the map displayed. Steyning Town Hall, (currently an estate agents) at 38 High Street, was built in 1886.
The legendary Irish politician Charles Stewart Parnell married 'Kitty' O'Shea (niece of Lord Hatherley) here in 1891, the culmination of the affair that saw his fall from power, catastrophically dividing Irish politics. In Steyning there is access to a variety of facilities including four public houses, the award-winning Steyning Tea Rooms, four estate agents and barclays bank. There is a leisure centre, which was built with National Lottery funding. It has a modern health centre, a public library and the Steyning Museum. A spring fair is held on the Spring bank holiday (the last Monday in May) The Monarch's Way long-distance footpath skirts the southern end of the town.
The Steyning Festival was founded in 2006 by Ann Poupard, a resident of the town. The event is now biennial and runs for two weeks at the end of May/start of June. It features theatre, music, literature, talks, walks, community events and more. In 2009, the Steyning Festival was awarded a lottery grant to bring international artist and psychogeographer Chris Dooks to Steyning for a month-long residency, resulting in a free MP3 tour.

Tales From the New Forest: Lyndhurst
Lyndhurst has lots going on, but also holds a secret...curiouser and curiouser!
New Forest Country Walk - Brockenhurst-Rhinefield-Brock Hill-Bolderford Bridge round
Our video is a guided walk in the New Forest in Hampshire. We start in Brockenhurst near the Snakecatcher pub and walk down Brookley Road through the main shopping area then head to Rhinefield Road. We turn off the road and walk to Brock Hill then make our way to Bolderford Bridge where we turn left and follow the river on our right back to Brockenhurst. This is a beautiful walk and we see lots of roaming forest ponies and wild deer. This is an easy to moderate walk on mainly good tracks with some forest road. There are only slight inclines and declines but the last part of the walk by Lymington River is unlevel. Approx 10 miles allow 3 hours 30 minutes using OS Explorer Map 22 New Forest.Start point: The Snakecatcher pub next to the railway crossing on the A337 at Brockenhurst.
