The Old Forge is believed to date back to circa 17th century with later additions and is located adjacent to common land set back from the A27. The property affords many period features which include 2 wood burning stoves and a wealth of exposed joinery. A viewing is highly recommended.
The Old Forge is situated in the old world village of Wilmington within the South Downs National Park. Wilmington with its picturesque high street is also enhanced by its ancient parish church and the newly renovated Longman Inn. The property is surrounded by common land from which a public footbath provides direct access to the South Downs Way. The village of Alfriston is nearby within the scenic Cuckmere Valley and the principal coastal town of Eastbourne is about 7 miles distant. Sporting facilities in the Eastbourne area include 3 principal golf courses and one of the largest sailing marinas on the south coast. The nearby downland countryside of the South Downs National Park offers wonderful recreational opportunity. There are rail services from both nearby Berwick Station and Polegate to London Victoria and to Gatwick and a new cycle path gives alternative access to downland villages.
