SUSSEX

Sussex includes the areas at present administered by East and West Sussex County Councils, (except for Gatwick), and the towns of Brighton and Hove.
The County is very varied with the busy seaside towns stretching in an almost unbroken chain from Bognor Regis to Hastings, hilly chalk downland further north with excellent walking, and pleasant small towns inland such as Petworth, Lewes, Arundel and Battle.  On the Surrey borders you will find the large new town of Crawley, but not far from it is Worth Forest, one of the last areas of primeval woodland in England.  Sports associated with the County include sailing, where Chichester Harbour is ever popular, and polo, played at Cowdray Park near Midhurst.
