1066 Countryside
Rolling hills, steam railways and fairytale castles
Rural 1066 Country is so vast and unspoilt that even the most intrepid ramblers could lose themselves in any direction for days on end. Even the most casual walk through our countryside offers a spectacular tour of the area's finest sights and sounds and takes in key historic sites like the remains of Pevensey Castle and Battle Abbey together with the field on which King Harold fell.
