Discover the hidden story of Exceat Village with Gary Webster

April 20 @ 10:30 am


Discover the hidden story of Exceat, a medieval village lost to time. This 1.5‑hour walk explores how the South Downs were formed, the archaeological traces that survive beneath the South Downs landscape, and the mysteries surrounding why Exceat’s residents eventually abandoned their homes. A gentle journey through chalk, history, and the rise and fall of a once‑thriving community.

£5pp. Pre booking required.
