Finchdean Village and The George Pub

Highlight • Historical Site

Finchdean is a hamlet just north of Rowlands Castle in the South Downs National Park. Every building seems to have stepped out of the past and you'll find a historic pound here, a place where stray animals were kept until their owners were found. If you're hiking in the area and are after some lunch, check out the George Pub.
