Peacehaven
Peacehaven is a town and civil parish in the Lewes district of East Sussex, England. The town covers a total area of around 2 square miles. It lies above the chalk cliffs of the South Downs around 6 miles (9.7 kilometres) east of Brighton city centre, on the A259 road. The pebble beach below the cliffs can be reached by a stairs and concrete driveway and sea walk. There is a number of green spaces along the A259 and the cliffs, one of which is called The Dell. A cinema formerly stood on this site, and now it holds activities such as car boot sales, fireworks, fairgrounds, motorhome expositions, the Donkey Derby and an annual carnival, even though in 2005 the carnival was held on the Joff field situated behind the Meridian shopping centre. In the 1950s, the carnival stalls were located on the then unused land on the NW corner of the South Coast Road (A259) and Dorothy Avenue. Its site matches with the point where the Greenwich meridian crosses the English south coast. The Greenwich meridian is marked by a 3.5 m (11 feet) tall obelisk, commissioned by Charles Neville. It was launched on 10 August 1936 and has actually been transferred two times because of erosion of the cliffs. The parish features part of the Brighton to Newhaven Cliffs Site of Special Scientific Interest. The cliffs are specifically of geological interest, incorporating many Santonian and Campanian fossils. The SSSI listing includes flora and fauna biological interest too. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent resident population of around 14067 people.
