Away from the antique shops we make our way from the old part of Seaford to the High Street with its familiar shops and modern facade. With the help of Dr Geoffrey Mead, we manage to avoid clink and discover more of Secret Sussex.

We step off the number 12 bus and into the 1860's at Seaford Station, we take a stroll through the modern shopping area and then back into the past once again as we join local historian Dr Geoffrey Mead in the tranquillity of St Leonard's Church.

The once industrial centre between Newhaven and Seaford is today almost invisible but if you get off the bus you can step back in time. Dr. Geoffrey Mead gives us a flavour of Tide Mills and the people who've not been gone that long.
