The ancient market town of Petworth traces its origins back to medieval times. Set amidst the lush beauty of the West Sussex countryside in an area known as the Golden Triangle, its winding lanes and quaint old buildings give the impression that time has stood still. Yet nothing could be further from the truth, for Petworth, whilst maintaining all the charm of the past, is a thriving town. Not only an important centre for antiques, it also has much more to offer the visitor, including interesting shops, cafes and restaurants. Other attractions include the charming Cottage Museum, the cultural highlight of the annual Petworth Festival, the traditional Petworth Fair, the Hidden Gardens weekendâ?¦ the list is endless. Many of JMW Turnerâ??s masterpieces were painted
