Ringwood

Consisting of two cottages and three barns of varying ages. Farming first occurred here during the first decade of the 19th century when the flint walls of the surrounding fields were built. The main house was known as Peakdown House on Eastbourne's 1841 tithe map, Halfway House on the OS map of 1875, then Ringwood on the 1899 map. The flint barn adjacent to the cottages dates from the early 19th century but the other two are fairly recent. Beyond is the southern portion of Crunden's Bottom which was once farmed from here but is now part of Eastbourne Downs Golf Course.
