The pastoral and romantic in East Sussex

Fancy a winter excursion over the High Weald via Battle and Heathfield to a beautiful 13th century, grade I listed church?  Steeped in history with a yew tree aged over 2,000 years old in the churchyard, nearby Hogge House is where the first English cannon is thought to have been cast in the 16th century. Dave Poole shows you how to link this charming trip with a wonderful concert of rarely performed English music.
