Ditchling Common once the King’s land as part of the Saxon Manor is now a Country Park (designated as such in 1974) north of Ditchling and lies between Haywards Heath and Lewes to the east of Burgess Hill in West Sussex. It covers an area of 188 acres (0.76 km2) and can be found at map reference TQ337181. The common is very popular with walkers and particularly dog walkers partially due to its proximity to the southeastern outskirts of Burgess Hill.
