Poynings emerges from the folds of the chalk hills as a singular collection of flint and timber, anchored firmly against the rising slope of the South Downs. It lies 4.4 miles north-north-east of Southwick (from Southwick: bearing 20°T, OS grid TQ 264 120), and is situated east-north-east of Fulking village. This landscape falls entirely within the protected expanse of the South Downs National Park, where the sky seems to weigh heavy and bright upon the verdant shoulders of the earth. To the south, the deep, scooped amphitheatre of Devil’s Dyke carves a dramatic shadow into the ridge, reminding the observer of the violent, ancient forces that once shaped this limestone spine. East Hill and North Hill stand as silent, grassy sentinels above the rooftops, their heights marked by the weathered silhouette of a Bronze Age bowl barrow. Sunlight catches the pale, porous stone of the local church, a structure that has watched the seasons turn over the rolling pastures for centuries. Poynings maintains a quiet gravity, indifferent to the hurried pace of the lowlands, drawing its character from the stark, wind-swept transition between the high, open chalk and the clay of the Weald. Each lane in Poynings follows the intuitive path of the land, worn deep by the slow movement of cattle and the persistent, scouring touch of the south-westerly gales.
