Comes alive on a NNE through ENE. A long ridge feeds a big north-east bowl, though the bowl can read lighter than it really is.
CP rated, an honest ridge-soaring bowl with room to learn the Downs.
Launch along the north-east ridge into the bowl.
Top land on the ridge above the bowl.
Gated club car park; the Barley Mow at Selmeston is the local. Postcode BN26 6UW.
In a NNE the quarry behind throws rotor and a venturi that flatters the wind. Rabbit burrows underfoot, and shooting in the quarry woods in season.
