Ditchling Beacon
Ditchling Beacon, the highest point in East Sussex, is situated south of the village of Ditchling, and not far from Brighton. At 248 miles above sea-level, you can get some incredible views of the surrounding area, particularly the beautiful lands of the Downs. There’s also a marked walking trail that takes you from here to another great spot, Devil’s Dyke. The beacon is also on the site of an ancient Iron-Age hillfort, so perfect for any history buffs who love nature too!
