There is also a free chalk pit garden that is well worth a visit. It is just next to the Highdown Hill car park and just above the tea room.

“Highdown Camp is one of the most enigmatic enclosures in the South Downs. Much fieldwork has taken place here but the original function of the enclosure is unknown. It may well have been built about 1500 BC and it was certainly refurbished in the Iron Age and Roman periods at which time it may have functioned as a ritual sanctuary.

There is an Anglo-Saxon cemetery here too, and during WWII, troops were stationed
on site”
