Willingdon buildings [4]
Chalk Farm Hotel, Cooper's Hill, was built in the early 18th century. Stuccoed front under a tile roof. Reputed to be the setting for George Orwell's book 'Animal Farm'. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1043673
Once isolated villages, Upper Willingdon and Lower Willingdon, are now part of the built-up area of Eastbourne. Set on a spur at the foot of the South Downs, the village lies astride the A22 road, about 1 mile south of Polegate. There is evidence of occupation since the pre-Saxon age.
