Pound Hill

Its boundaries extend north beyond the main built-up area thus making it also the most northerly neighbourhood in the town.

Due to the close proximity of Worth Church, Pound Hill did not develop into a village.

The turnpike was busy and the hill leading down Church Lane became difficult for wheeled vehicles.

A public house the Kings Head became a popular stopping place for coaches between London and Brighton.

Work began and building new houses around 1953 and the southern part of Pound Hill was completed in 1956.

Worth Park Gardens is a large recreational parkland located within Pound Hill and dates back to 1882.
