Slindon
There’s a good reason why it’s such a nice place – most of the village is managed by the Slindon Estate which is itself owned by the National Trust. As a result there’s a higher than average emphasis on preventing development and keeping things as they are – which is saying something because West Sussex has stringent planning laws to say the least.
Slindon is one of the birthplaces of cricket (along with Goodwood, Hambledon and a host of other places in the south east who all deserve to have their claims acknowledged – even if there is no one real birthplace of cricket).
There aren’t many things for a visitor to do in Slindon except simply walk around and enjoy it all. Highly recommended, and not far from the A29 and A27 roads – a short but worthwhile detour.
