HAMLET VIEW

South Stoke - West Sussex

Love the 3 sheep about to tackle the low jump!
Just a farm, and these few cottages hiding a church. South Stoke is one of West Sussex's more remote feeling villages. It lies in the Arun Valley north of Arundel at the end of a quiet road on the west bank of the River Arun, on the edge of Arundel Park. It is a very small village...really just a hamlet. Centuries ago it was larger, with a manor and more farms. The village population decreased after 1806 when common land was enclosed to make Arundel Park, depriving the village of sheep grazing land.
