Located in the southeastern area of England, bordered by the English Channel to the south and the London suburbs to the North, East Sussex has been defined by it's coastal areas, symbolised by the chalk cliffs. The coastal areas were an important defence against invaders from the south and more recently have welcomed invaders from the north; Londoners looking to enjoy a more relaxed pace of life away from the city.

Brighton is the most popular of the south coast resorts and helps to support a thriving tourist industry which is supported by excellent rail links and has taken over from more traditional industries although hops and cattle are still farmed.

Area. 693 square miles (1,795 square km).

Pop. (1991 prelim.) 670,600.
