News
Hello everyone! Welcome to my guest post with Sussex Modern. My name’s Lareese & I’m a content creator from Brighton, East Sussex.
Malling Down Nature Reserve
This downland nature reserve sits on the fringes of the county town of Lewes. The Iron Age hill fort of Mount Caburn can be accessed from here and is a 15-minute walk up from Glynde village. It has beautiful views out to the sea.
Explore this area of superb chalk grassland with many typical and rare flowers and butterflies, all within easy walking distance of Lewes town centre.
