Ashdown Forest

Originally a deer hunting forest in Norman times, Ashdown Forest is now one of the largest free public areas in the South East of England. It is a great place for walking and enjoying amazing views over the Sussex countryside and is known the world over as the 'home' of Winnie-the-Pooh.

A misty winter's morning on Ashdown Forest. Some great all year round walks can be found here, I have spent many an hour exploring with my dog, there's always something new to see on an ever changing landscape of heather, trees and wildlife.
