Welcome to Findon

Findon is a small village located in the district of West Sussex, England. It is situated at the foot of the South Downs, which is a range of hills that runs along the southern coast of England. The village is known for its picturesque countryside, which attracts many visitors throughout the year. Findon is also home to a number of historic buildings, including the 12th-century church of St. John the Baptist, which is a popular tourist attraction.

The village of Findon has a rich history that dates back to the Roman era. The area was once a major center for iron production, and many of the old ironworks can still be seen today. In the 19th century, Findon became a popular destination for wealthy Londoners who were looking for a peaceful retreat from the city. Many of the grand houses and estates that were built during this time still stand today, and they are a testament to the village's rich history.

Today, Findon is a thriving community that is home to a number of shops, restaurants, and pubs. The village is also known for its annual village fair, which takes place in August and attracts visitors from all over the region. With its beautiful countryside, rich history, and vibrant community, Findon is a wonderful place to visit or call home.

Brilliant Walk For Wheelchair Users. The Path Is A Road Therefore Great For Wheelchairs. Public Can Walk Along It Or On The Grass. The Road Is Used But Not Often, Only By People Who Live On The Estate Who Are Obviously Aware. Dogs Can Be Off Lead Until You Reach A Closed Gate Where The Sheep Graze. They Get Moved So Sometimes You Might Not Be Able To Walk As Far With Your Dog However Sheep Are Fenced Off. For People Who Can Walk, You Can Continue In And Walk Down To Swanbourne Lake.
