SHEFFIELD PARK GARDEN, Sheffield Park, Uckfield East Sussex TN22 3QX
A magnificent landscape garden, laid out in the 18th century by 'Capability'
Brown and further developed in the early years of this century by its owner,
Arthur G. Soames. The centrepiece is the original four lakes, linked by cascades
and waterfalls. There are dramatic shows of daffodils and bluebells in spring,
and the rhododendrons, azaleas and stream garden are spectacular in early
summer. Autumn brings stunning colours from the many rare trees and shrubs

BATEMAN'S, Burwash, Etchingham East Sussex TN19 7DS
The home of Rudyard Kipling from 1902--36, the interior of this beautiful
Jacobean house reflects the author's strong associations with the East. There
are many Oriental rugs and artefacts, and most of the rooms -- including his
book-lined study -- are much as Kipling left them. The delightful grounds run
down to the small River Dudwell, where there is a water-mill, and contain roses,
wild flowers and herbs. Kipling's Rolls-Royce is also on display

BODIAM CASTLE, Bodiam, nr Robertsbridge East Sussex TN32 5UA
One of the most famous and evocative castles in Britain, Bodiam was built in
1385, both as a defence and a comfortable home. The exterior is virtually
complete and the ramparts rise dramatically above the moat below. Enough of the
interior survives to give an impression of castle life, and there are spiral
staircases and battlements to explore. An audiovisual presentation and small
museum provide social and historical background

ALFRISTON CLERGY HOUSE, The Tye, Alfriston, Polegate East Sussex BN26 5TL
Bought in 1896 for the princely sum of £10, this was the first building to
be acquired by the Trust. A 14th-century timber-framed and thatched hall house,
it is little altered and characteristic of the Wealden vernacular style. The
interior contains a fine medieval hall and exhibition and there is a charming
cottage garden, with many typical countryside flowers, once common but rarely
seen today
