More about this scene

Two miles south-west of Michelham Priory, further downstream along the Cuckmere River, we reach Arlington, another scattered village of farmsteads bisected by the meandering river. The Cuckmere River rises six or so miles north-east of Hailsham and meanders past it to the west. Then it flows through the South Downs to reach the English Channel at Cuckmere Haven, where there is no port or settlement, unlike at Sussex's other river mouths such as the Arun, the Adur and the Ouse.
