Documents and slides

This site contains many useful sources and information, but you may also want to look at the list of articles that have been extracted from the Newsletters, or at the publications page. Documents specifically about recording are on the Recording page.

4. Map of the East & West Sussex vice county boundaries

This file contains a map showing the boundaries of the Watsonian vice counties of East Sussex (VC14) and West Sussex (VC13). In most cases the boundary follows the administrative boundary but there are several exceptions.

The vice county boundaries define the area used for our flora recording with two exceptions. For some reason the recording boundary used in the Sussex Plant Atlas survey followed the administrative boundary rather than the VC boundary in the area around Flimwell and the area to the east of Camber and so includes small parts of the vice county of West Kent. In order to be consistent with the Plant Atlas we are also recording these areas. So, if you are recording in the Ticehurst/Flimwell or Camber areas, please use the administrative boundary shown on OS maps as the limit of the recording area.
