As it's #SussexDay , I can hardly avoid posting this - 'Downland Rambles - Beachy Head to Eastbourne, Sussex', Adrian Allinson, oil on canvas, 1950.
#DidYouKnow from the 1860s to 1920s Met officers from the dockyard divisions at Portsmouth and Chatham regularly escorted prisoners to and from the naval prison in Lewes, halfway between the two? #SussexDay
It's #SussexDay and #HillfortsWednesday , so here's 'Mount Caburn', Eric Ravilious, watercolour and pencil, 1935.
'Lullington Church', James Bateman, oil on canvas, 1939. One of my favourite Batemans, and one of my favourite churches.

‘Shepherd’s Cottage (The Lay)’, Eric Ravilious, watercolour, 1934. The shepherd’s cottage is in Beddingham, very near to Furlongs, a favourite dwelling of the artist, and home of Peggy Angus. #ericravilious #ravilious #sussexday

It’s #SussexDay - we had this one recently but it seems appropriate for a sunny Sussex Day - Tea at Furlongs, Eric Ravilious, 1939.
It’s #Sussex Day today so you get an extra Ravillious!
Chalk Paths, Eric Ravilious, 1935. It depicts an area of the South Downs near Lewes in East #Sussex , now South Downs National Park. The original artwork is in a private collection.
