We would agree that Rother has outstanding environmental qualities. The high quality environment of the coastline and the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The High Weald geology and geomorphology descriptions are welcome but the visual descriptions could be expanded. It is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) for its rolling hills, small, irregular fields, abundant woods and hedges, scattered farmsteads and sunken lanes.

The historical context for the Pevensey Marshes/Pevensey Levels is welcome but it is considered that the visual landscape and wildlife descriptions could be expanded upon.
