Late afternoon sun on Ashdown Forest
Ashdown Forest is a former medieval hunting forest, and is the highest ridge of the High Weald. At ten square miles it is the largest open access area in the South East. Ashdown Forest was purchased by East Sussex County Council from the De La Warr family in 1988. It is now managed by a Board of Conservators. Nearly two thirds of it is heathland. This is the view north-westwards from near Camp Hill Clump.
Camp Hill Clump was first planted in 1825. Its name probably derives from a military camp nearby. The Wealdway long distance path passes the clump.
