Playing Pooh Sticks
Poohsticks Bridge (provided by Oast House Archive)
Made famous by A.A. Milne's book Winnie The Pooh books. It bridges a stream leading to the River Medway within Posingford Wood.
In the books the characters would drop sticks off the bridge and see whose would reach the other side first. Now thousands of visitors do the same.

Mill Brook, a headwater tributary of the River Medway, rises near Chelwood Gate on the Ashdown Forest. It flows approx. 14km in a generally NE direction to join the River Medway near Withyham. The famous Poohsticks Bridge crosses the stream near Hartfield. There are several remains of the Wealden Iron industry along its length.
