The 16th June is Sussex Day, an excuse to celebrate everything and anything to do with the county of Sussex.
There are a few events organised to mark the occasion, but never being one to follow the crowd I shall probably do my own thing, probably involving walking and family history.
Last year I ended up walking 20 miles through the Sussex countryside visiting several ancestral villages, houses and churches along the way, before ending up on top of Wolstonbury Hill, overlooking the landscape where my ancestors lived.
Until now I haven’t really given much thought to what I will do to mark Sussex Day this year, but weather permitting I shall probably do something similar, but maybe not quite so far this time around.
