Who was the Grey Lady of Pevensey Castle? How many pubs are there in Sussex? How long would the Cuckmere be if it were stretched out?

Where could you have dined on Pigeons au soleil. What (or who) on earth is the Knucker? How many men did it take to run the Shoreham Oyster Fleet?

Who won the Battle of Lewes? How many Lords Lieutenant does it take to run the county?

Where are the Mutton Barracks? What's the highest score ever made in one match by Sussex County Cricket Club?

For answers to these burning questions, or for a lovely lazy afternoon dipping into an entertainingly quirky mix of local facts, figures, history, statistics and folk tales, turn to the "Sussex Miscellany", a refreshing Schott of Sussex for readers who love local trivia.
