Friend's Clump

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Ashdown forest has a very different feel from the nearby scenery - great for a walk at the end of a cycle ride.

Nutley Windmill

Highlight • Historical Site

These old windmills are the best proof that people were clever enough a number of centuries ago - long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions that resulted from it - to harness the power of the elements for their own purposes: no human or animal muscle power is needed for the grinding process, but the wind captured by the wings is enough to drive the heavy millstones and thus, for example, to grind flour from grain (grain mills) or to press oil from olives (oil mills). Often they are only technical and historical evidence of a long tradition of craftsmanship, because most of the old mills have been abandoned over time.
