The Longman of Wilmington, whilst not a chalk figure is still an arresting vision (outline made with bricks) – restored in 1874, the present figure differs from the pre-restoration outline, he probably had a face and the poles could have been a scythe or an axe.
I have shown him both looking out in one version, and also with the tussocks from the grass in shadow. A handprinted original illustration.
Near by is the Cuckmere river, which has a serpent like meander.
