Every local garden enthusiast should take the opportunity to flip through the photos of the astonishing garden at Downmere in the centre of Poynings which Knight Frank has generously made available on the web. Downmere was the home of the late Geoffrey Harris from 1978-2013.

Poynings Garden Fete
Saturday June 6th at 2.00pm in the Rectory garden. Teas, cakes, stalls, puppets, maypole, live music and a local clairvoyant has predicted that there will be a dastardly murder that day, maybe someone you know? If you’re not there, you won’t find out*. Proceeds in aid of running costs and general repair of our beautiful 14th century Church.
