Hide AdA Cuckmere Haven SOS spokesperson said, “The sight of these cottages perched on the edge raises peoples spirits just to look at them. They’re cherished because they help people dream. They’re enchanted. And in our hard, sad world, enchantment is a treasure.
“Please show your support for this special place, sign the petition and write a short email to the SDNPA to say why the coastguard cottages and cable hut at Cuckmere Haven are worth saving.
“If these buildings do hold some kind of poetry for you please communicate your feelings. You need to do this by Friday, July 24. The planning department will not accept any more representations after this date.
“Please also share this far and wide with anyone who has an affection for this view.”
