Viewed from the footpath that links the village with Upper Chancton Farm. The original village was based around the church at the foot of the Downs but through the ages the population steadily migrated northwards particularly along the wasteland near the old decayed hamlet of Buncton. The last of the villagers were moved out in the 19th century when Wiston House extended its park.
