We have tried to fit as many visits as possible, but as a consequence the timings for all the tours are tight, so please ensure you return to the coach no later than the time stated by the tour leader and note any instructions they or the driver may give. Most of the places that we visit are either public open spaces or sites, buildings, or structures that are open to the public on a regular basis. Please be aware that all tour members have a responsibility to conduct themselves in a safe and appropriate manner, so do take care when boarding or alighting from vehicles, particularly if crossing in front of or behind the vehicle where one’s view may be obstructed. Similarly care should be exercised when ascending or descending steps or steep slopes and paths that may additionally be slippery when wet. Where we are visiting a site that is not usually open to the public, further instructions will be provided by the Tour Guide when we get to the site. Our best wishes for enjoyable time Committee of the Sussex Industrial Archaeology Society To assist with identifying the sites while on the bus tours the Field Guide / Gazetteer booklet references are included in the notes for each tour.
