The river Ouse at Piddinghoe, Sussex |
The church here is has an unusual round tower and surrounded by a mass of snowdrops in early Spring.
The village also has the only remaining bottle shaped brick kiln in the country ,which you can just see behind the house...

It all looked so very colourful (unlike my black and white photo ) and the reflections upon the river as it headed out to sea made the view just perfect to paint!

Finally, an extract from Rudyard Kipling's Poem "Sussex"
"And the deep ghylls that breed
Huge oaks and old, the which we hold
No more than Sussex weed;
Or south where windy Piddinghoe’s
Begilded dolphin veers
And red beside wide-bankèd Ouse
Lie down our Sussex steers. "
