Welcome to HorstedKeynes.Com the web site for all who love our Beautiful Sussex Village. Here you will find much to interest both residents and visitors to our area, together with much to interest newcomers. From our Parish Church, more than 1000 years old, to the Bluebell Railway which regularly brings our village to TV screens all over the world. You will also notice that we try to represent villagers' views on sometimes contentious local issues in the same friendly way that local topics are discussed in the pub. If you have anything to add or correct please email the webmasters; the address is at the end of every page.
