Cuckmere Valley

High and Over

A viewpoint on the road from Seaford to Alfriston, offering superb views over the Cuckmere River 100 metres below.

It turns out to also be a launching point for the local paragliders when the wind picks up

Having caught sight of the paragliders from afar earlier in the day, I was glad I went to investigate. It was a colourful spectacle
