Cocking

Cocking is a village and civil parish in the Chichester district of West Sussex, England. The village is about three miles (5 km) south of Midhurst on the main A286 road to Chichester. The South Downs Way runs along the ridge of the Downs above Cocking on its route from Eastbourne in East Sussex to Winchester in Hampshire. Hikers and cyclists beating that long distance path can drop down Cocking Hill into the village to see the fascinating History Column and 11th Century Church. whilst there they can refresh themselves at the Post Office, Moonlight Cottage Tea Rooms or Bluebell pub. They may also want to simply visit Cocking 'just because it's there'.
