Highdown Hill

Hillfort

Folklore

In Jacqueline Simpson's "Sussex Local Legends"
(Folklore, Vol. 84, 1973) she mentions in a footnote on p207 that:

"I have come upon a cutting from the Worthing Gazette of 16 Oct, 1935 referring to Aaron's Calf being buried on Highdown Hill - yet another site with a hill-fort."

The Aaron's Calf story is better known from The Trundle.
