Wivelsfield

RH15 0 / RH16 4 / RH17 7

Village feelFamily-friendly

A small village with a station on the Brighton to Lewes line, which makes it one of the more commuter-friendly villages in the area. The village itself is tiny, with a church and a few houses. Most of the housing is scattered along rural lanes. Wivelsfield Green, about a mile from the station, is the social centre with a pub and a village green. The station access gives it an edge over similar villages.
