About The Village - The hamlet west of Pevensey, or Westham, dates back to the Norman conquest of 1066. The 11th Century Church of St. Marys is believed to be the first built in England. Pevensey and Westham benefit from three pubs, a fish and chip shop, a couple of restaurants and two village stores plus more buildings of historic importance than you can shake a stick at!
Westham is a proper community with village fayres, the annual scarecrow festival, the village hall with clubs and events throughout the year, and the village pond complete with ducks. There is easy car access to the A22 and A27 for commuters, with Eastbourne approx. 10 minutes drive. To the coastal side, the Pevensey Levels are a haven for all manner of birds and wildlife.
Importantly the village features a mainline rail link with services to Brighton, Lewes and London. The station is just a few minutes walk from the High Street for most people.
