Hiking

Plumpton is a charming village of two halves. The southern end of the village is cut across by the South Downs Way near the site of an Early Bronze Age settlement. North of the track is a chalk-cross with a sandstone block at its centre, which commemorates the Battle of Lewes in 1264.

Hiking

If you choose to skirt the village to the south on the Ditchling to Lewes Road, watch out for a section of pink road by the half moon pub. It climbs steeply whilst cornering and is an important place to adopt an assertive road position so that you remain visible .
