Jevington
You're now on the last stretch of the trail, and after a short walk from Alfriston, you'll reach the small village of Jevington. The village church was built by the Saxons in AD900, and still stands today. Stop at the Hungry Monk, and have a slice of Banoffi Pie - it was, after all, invented in this very restaurant!
Eastbourne
The South Downs Way National Trail finishes on the palm tree lined Eastbourne promenade. Eastbourne is a traditional seaside resort with 5 miles of unspoilt beaches, 4 golf courses, and a Blue Flag clean sea. While you're there, enjoy the town's watersports or sea a West End show at one of the 5 theatres.
