VILLAGE HALL This is the social heart of the Village, situated at the
junction of Church Lane and the A259. It is the home of the Clymping football
teams, the senior of which plays in Division 3 of the Sussex County Football
League and the reserves in Division 1 of the West Sussex League. In the
summer months cricket is played on one of the best squares in the county. Two
teams play in the Sussex Invitation League and most weekends sees a game on a
Saturday and often on a Sunday too. Also during the summer the ladies do
battle in the County Stoolball League. As well as sports on the Recreation Ground, attached to
the Hall, the Village boasts a Sports and Social Club which is always happy
to accept new members. Facilities include a bar, well appointed kitchen, and
a reasonably large main hall, with a stage. There is also a large car park.
John Wooldridge is the Chairman of the Club and also looks after bookings for
the Hall, which is available at most competitive rates. For his details Click Here. [UP] CLYMPING BEACH and SSSI The beach at Clymping, although mainly privately owned,
has, for many years, been made available for family use. It is emphasised
that as it is frequented by families an acceptable standard of dress is
expected and enforced. Local residents are very pleased to see visitors
enjoying themselves within these constraints. Adjacent to the family beach is a Site of Special
Scientific Interest (SSSI) where uncommon and indeed, in some cases rare,
specimens of flora and fauna are to be found. The site is protected and all
members of the public are asked to exercise particular caution. Such events
as barbeques and parties are not appreciated within the area because of the
damage that could be caused. The watchwords are “Enjoyment with Responsibility” [UP]

go to an album of old pictures of Clymping. This is saved in
Adobe Acrobat PDF format. The pictures have been updated to 6
June 2010. The file is now 12mb in size due to the
number of pictures involved and should only be downloaded if you have a
broadband connection. New cards are now found much more rarely so this
page is likely only to be updated annually from now on.

Henry Green in 1907 which also contains some interesting local advertisements

It has been suggested that having a forum on which to post messages about activities in the parish could be an advantage. Therefore one has been created here and everyone is free to use it.
