Long Man Viewpoint
Viewpoint A tall story © Rory Walsh Time: 15 mins Region: South East England Landscape: rural Location: Long Man of Wilmington, Windover Hill, Wilmington, East Sussex BN26 5SW Grid reference: TQ 54255 03458 Parking: Use the free (but height restricted) car park beside Wilmington Priory (grid ref: TQ 54330 04189) Keep an eye out for: ‘Extras’ – things campaigners and pranksters have added to the figure include flashing lights, pigtails, a baseball cap and Y-fronts! Keeping watch over the South Downs, the Long Man of Wilmington is one of Britain’s most mysterious residents. Standing proud with a stave (stick) in each hand, he is supported by grassy hills and shrouded in myths and folklore. The Long Man is one of over 50 hill figures in Britain, many of which depict white horses. At 226 feet tall the Long Man is the largest ‘human’, some 46 feet taller than the Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset. Though Britain’s hill figures vary in size and shape, most of them appear in the southern counties of England - especially Dorset, Wiltshire, Hampshire and Sussex. Why do so many hill figures live in southern England? To begin look at the Long Man’s shape. His name comes from his stretched body which appears in proportion when seen from below. Now take in the landscape around him, a grassy slope with very few trees. This slope, Windover Hill, is typical chalk downland. The Long Man’s home is part of the South Downs chalk ridge that rolls gently through Hampshire and Sussex. Though they look tranquil today the Downs have dramatic origins. -
