Log Text: There are two of tumuli in this area: One north, one south. Both are at about the same height above sea level. Each has a view of the other.
Babylon South is a small tumulus approx 1 metre high with clear sea views over Eastboune and towards Hastings. It is a highpoint having high views looking immediately south.
Babylon North is in the high point of a wooded area. Now less than 0.5 metres high, it is highly damaged: A footpath runs through the centre of it. Were in not for the woods, it would also have clear sea views. It is also a highpoint overlooking the immediate north.
