Seaford

Seaford is a coastal town in the county of East Sussex, on the south coast of England. Lying east of Newhaven and Brighton and west of Eastbourne, it is the largest town in Lewes district.

Seaford has been twinned with the town of Boenningstedt, Germany, since 1986. Seaford has one of the longest serving town criers in England and Wales -Peter White- who was appointed to this honorary position in 1977 by Lewes District Council.

Seaford boasts the westernmost of the South Coast Martello Towers, now a local history museum.

The town lies on the coast near Seaford Head, roughly equidistant between the mouths of the River Ouse and the Cuckmere. The Ouse valley was a wide tidal estuary with its mouth nearly closed by a shingle bar, but the tidal mudflats and salt marshes have been "inned" (protected from the tidal river by dikes) to form grassy freshwater marshes (grazing marsh).
