Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 26/04/2026We’ve been meaning to come and find the derelict church in the woods at Bedham for years. Today was the day. And it is stunning. 030
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 22/04/2026The bluebells are coming towards their end so if you haven't seen them already, make a plan for the weekend. It's free therapy. 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 19/04/2026Tonight we visited an old friend at Wilmington 040
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 18/04/2026While we were orchid-hunting we stumbled across this one, the eggleaf twayblade. Yup. That’s its name. A common green-flowered orchid we’ve probably overlooked for years. 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 18/04/2026We found our first early purple orchid of the year at Blackcap last night. Always a thrill. 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 12/04/2026A perfect Sunday afternoon with the bluebells of Newtimber Hill. Absolutely exquisite. 021
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 08/04/2026A lovely place to cool off with a dip. Anyone? 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 06/04/2026What a glorious day. Who is out and about? 020

Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 01/04/2026The extraordinary tunnel at Clayton. But imagine trying to sell that house. 100
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 31/03/2026Nan Kemp's Corner in Kingston. The details of Nan's life and death have become hazy and exaggerated but the tragedy is clear. 000
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 04/01/2026Downland paths, so frosty but so inviting. 030
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 05/12/2025Downland doggo is happy this morning ❄️ 010
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 17/11/2025A belter of a day but that wind is a little... lively 🥶 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 09/11/2025We've not posted for a while because, you know, life. But what an absolute stunner of a morning 🍂 120
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 02/10/2025Autumn used to make me sad but I have come to love its melancholy beauty. May we all find such happiness on a misty morning. 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 24/09/2025A glimpse of the downs from the Ashdown Forest tonight 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 16/09/2025If you're out and about today, go well. I'm stuck at my desk and wishing I was here. 040
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 29/08/2025Welcome to the weekend 🧡 I hope you find the sun and a secluded spot to some spend time with the barrows and blossoms. 010
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 25/08/2025Another glorious day for those who are a-wandering. 010
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 24/08/2025I love this late-summer feel. Hope, nostalgia, a sense of time passing and the need to make the most of every moment 💚 060
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 02/06/2025How was your weekend? We took an evening stroll on the downs, spotted some orchids, a red kite and a hare, and sat down with some baby grasshoppers for a picnic. 10/10 030
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 20/05/2025We love a tapsel gate into a churchyard. Unique to Sussex, and there are just a handful, they allow a coffin to be passed over the top. 160
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 07/05/2025There comes a time in your life when you really start to appreciate a motte and bailey castle. Have you reached it yet? This stunner is between Truleigh Hill and Devil's Dyke. 010
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 01/05/2025Happy Beltane, friends May this surge of energy from the earth put a spring in your step 💚 031
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 24/04/2025One of the hidden gems of the downs ... the Chattri Memorial 💙 030
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 22/04/2025Morning all, how was your long weekend? 120
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 18/04/2025Is there anything more April than gorgeous blossoms against moody skies? 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 17/04/2025The tunnel at Clayton is a sight to behold. They don't make 'em like that any more. 030
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 14/04/2025It's the most wonderful time of the year 🎶 020
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 10/04/2025Outside Ditching is this curiosity... Jacob's Post. It marks the spot where a pedlar was hanged in 1734 after stealing a coat from the landlord of an inn, then slashing his throat before fleeing. Sadly, the Royal Oak closed in 2009 but the post and the story live on. #DarkSussex 030
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 18/12/2024High and Over... surely one of the best named parts of the downs. 0111
Love The South Downs @southdownsfans.bsky.social · 16/12/2024If you're in need of a last-minute gift for a lover of the downs, might we suggest our rather gorgeous book? Stunning imagery, lots of fantastical stories, and a reminder that its treasures are revealed when you go slow. www.lovethesouthdowns.org.uk 031
