This ancient monument is a Neolithic flint mine and ceremonial center, dating back to around 2000 BC. The site features a series of circular ditches and banks, with a large, circular mound at its center. The mound is surrounded by a ring of 12 smaller, satellite mounds, creating a unique and intriguing landscape. Visitors can explore the site and learn about its history and significance through on-site exhibits and guided tours.
Rolling chalk downland with expansive views over countryside and out to the sea. Sheep and cows in the fields add some life to the landscape. From the very small roadside parking area, a well marked public footpath leads up the hill to the trig point. The climb is worth the effort - from here, Brighton and the white cliffs of Seaford Head are clearly visible to the east on a sunny day.
The south Downs way above Steyning, a great place for walkers and mountain bikers.
Nothing special; pretty but not worth a special journey unless you're already in the area and bimbling around. It's just another of many coombes within the south downs, and located on privately owned farmland. So stay on the public footpaths which cross the area.
It's a lovely place. Great for family walks and the view is spectacular. On a good day one can spot the paragliders getting around there for flights! Also don't be surprised to see farm animals, they add special touch to the picturesque atmosphere of the place.
The road through Steyning Bowl is stunning and there are many places to stop and stare in awe at the views.
Nice scenic point with a small car parking area. Also connects to the South Downs Way and Bostal Road leading up is on the 100 climbs lists for cyclists.
