Wilmington

URPoint Details

Overlooking the village is the Long Man cut into the downland turf of Windover Hill some 231ft tall. The figure holds two long staves upright on either side of him. He is thought to date back to Anglo-Saxon times and may be the work of Viking raiders.

There is a ruined 12th century priory, dating from Norman and Tudor times, with a Tudor crypt.

The yew tree in the churchyard is supposedly over 1000 years old.
