This area of land (approximately 10 acres) was formerly part of the Stenning’s Woodyard which, before its closure in 1986, occupied this site and the site across Bishops Lane which is now Mill Rise. When development permission was sought the land was offered to Rother District Council as a public open space. In 1995, the Parish Council acquired the land from Rother DC on a very long lease and is now responsible for its maintenance.
