June 2018: Lewes, East Sussex
Lewes (pronounced exactly the same as the
Scottish island of Lewis) is the county town of East Sussex in the
southeast of England. It was the location of the Battle of Lewes
(1264), but these days is probably best known for its spectacular
bonfire and festival on November 5th each year. On this short
midsummer visit, my main focus was on Lewes Castle, built between
1068 and 1070 in the immediate aftermath of the Battle of Hastings.
