Excerpt from Picturesque Sussex: A Volume of Sketches

More than either of the other counties in the south east of England, Sussex is a land of hill and wood indeed, of forest - and upon it the mantle of suburbanity, which, alas! Now hangs over many once beautiful dis triers of Kent and Surrey, has not yet fallen. How long Sussex will remain rural it is not safe to predict; an electric railway through its very heart will ere long whirl the business-man from London to its coast, and as this railway will not, we presume, be destitute of intermediate stations, one cannot but feel that, with the quickened journey from the town, the natural attractions of the county will soon tempt the Londoner to seek it as a residence. Knowledge of a demand is sure to create a supply, so that the eligible building site will then be in the market.
