Chailey Common is a 169 hectare (417.4 acre) biological site of Special Scientific Interest in the East Sussex.

Its heathy and bosky spaces are now fenced and grazed by mild park cattle.

Fifty years ago Garth Christian saved the marsh gentian from going extinct from the area and its trumpets full of tiny stars can still be seen there today.

Up the food chain, the area can also support rare bird species, including woodcock and nightjar.

Chailey Common was one of the last sites in the Sussex Weald that you could find Silver Studded Blue butterflies, but they seem to be gone from the area now.
