Tide Mills – a lovely spot for photographing wildflowers

Spotting wildflowers on a local walk

Tide Mills is the site of a ruined village in a historic coastal area between Seaford and Newhaven, which is popular with walkers. There were plenty of wildflowers to be seen when I visited in August.

After parking off the A259, the path skirts a couple of fields as it heads towards the beach.

Goji berries are well known to grow in this part of Sussex, but this was the first time I had seen the flowers
