We have some beautiful surroundings, here is a small
selection:
East Grinstead - the capital of the historic High Weald. This
ancient market town with its wealth of architectural heritage is
surrounded by some of the finest countryside in the whole of the South
East of England. This is where the River Medway rises and the vast
swathes of Ashdown Forest begin. Here you can ride the steam trains of
the famous Bluebell Railway, drift among the treasures of the National
Trust's Standen or celebrate the famous Christmas Carol of Good King
Wenceslas in the quadrangle of Sackville College.
Truly, East Grinstead has something for everyone. Friendly restaurants,
pubs, bars and coffee shops are waiting to bid you welcome.

St Swithun.
To quote the church guide book:
"For something like a thousand years a church has stood on this site,
serving not only as a centre of Christian Worship but also as the focus
for many other aspects of the life of our town and parish."

Weirwood Reservoir, East Grinstead
Built in 1954 and owned by Southern Water, the reservoir is home to
mallard, coot and moorhen. The cormorant is a regular visitor from the
coast, as is the Great Crested Grebe in the spring and the Osprey in the
autumn when they stop off to feed and rest before their long migration
to Africa
