Treyford Cemetery Churchyard Conservation Area

Highlight • Historical Site

Treyford cemetery is a cemetery in the village of Treyford, West Sussex. It is located on the northern edge of the village, on a site that was once occupied by a church dedicated to St Peter. The church was built in the 1840s and was known as “The Cathedral of The Downs” because of its size and location. However, the church was poorly constructed with local stone that deteriorated over time, and it was demolished with explosives in 1947 after it became unsafe.
The cemetery is now managed by the Treyford Conservation Group, which aims to provide a natural habitat for plants, insects, birds and mammals. The cemetery has a variety of gravestones, some of which are broken or fallen, and some of which are overgrown with brambles, ivy and grasses. The cemetery is open to the public and can be accessed by a public footpath that runs through it.

View from Beacon Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the summit of Beacon Hill, you are afforded wonderful views that stretch for miles in all directions. If you are hiking the South Downs Way, the trail actually takes a detour around the hill but it is worth making the effort to climb to the top to experience the views and explore the Iron Age hillfort at the summit.

Pen Hill

Highlight • Natural

This is a stunning area with good, wide, chalky paths that make even walking in the wetter winter months a breeze. Owing to the porous nature of chalk, even my rather rainy amble on the South Downs Way was a dry affair underfoot.
