Midhurst
Midhurst is a market community, church [3] and civil parish in West Sussex, England. It lies on the River Rother 20 miles (32 kilometres) inland from the English Channel, and also 12 miles (19 kilometres) north of the county town of Chichester. The name Midhurst was first recorded in 1186 as Middeherst, indicating "Middle wooded hillside", or "(location) among the wooded hills". It derives from the Old English words midd (adjective) or mid (preposition), suggesting "in the middle", plus hyrst, "a woody hill". The Norman St. Ann's Castle dates from about 1120, although the structures are all that can currently be seen. The castle, the parish church of St. Mary Magdalene as well as St. Denis, together with South Pond, the previous fish-pond for the castle, are the only three frameworks left from this very early period. The parish church is the oldest building in Midhurst. Simply throughout the River Rother, in the church of Easebourne, is the ruin of the Tudor Cowdray House.
