The area is made up of fields and drainage brooks and is a haven for wild birds.
To the west the picturesque villages of Iford, Rodmell and Southease are nestled at the base of the Downs with their chocolate box houses and narrow country lanes.

It looked so pretty in the sunshine! Looking back at the village all you could see were a few roof tops and a glimpse of the church. A lovely composition to paint.
