Firle Beacon
Firle Beacon, with fantastic views across the sea, sits high above the village of Firle in the South Downs National Park. The Beacon is home to a Neolithic tomb, and can be accessed using one of the many footpaths leading up from the village.
The Charleston Walking Map is a great way to explore Firle and take in some other local sites. From Firle village head up to Firle Beacon using one of the footpaths from the village.
