The Piltdown Man, Piltdown, Sussex

Piltdown

Piltdown is a series of hamlets in Sussex, found south of Ashdown Forest and forming a dispersed village in the middle of the county, on the rolling downland which rises to the south into the South Downs. It is a village surrounded by meadowland and coppices, with the Forestry Commission's 'Park Wood' to the east.
