Welcome to Foul Mile

Foul Mile is a small hamlet located in East Sussex, England. It is situated between the towns of Battle and Hastings and is known for its beautiful countryside and historic landmarks. The name Foul Mile is believed to have originated from the fact that the road leading to the hamlet was often muddy and difficult to traverse, especially during the rainy season.

One of the most notable landmarks in Foul Mile is the St. Mary's Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is built in the Norman style and features a beautiful bell tower and stained glass windows. It is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who come to admire its architecture and learn about its rich history.

Foul Mile is also home to several walking trails that offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The most popular trail is the Foul Mile Circular Walk, which takes visitors through fields, woods, and pastures. Along the way, hikers can spot a variety of wildlife, including deer, rabbits, and birds of prey. The trail is well-marked and suitable for all ages and fitness levels, making it a great way to explore the beauty of Foul Mile.
