Harting Down is one of the largest areas of ancient chalk downland in Britain and is managed by the National Trust. Within this timeless grassland, you can find wild herbs, pyramidal orchids, and some of the finest juniper that can be found. You can also hear skylarks, see many species of butterfly, and see rarities including the blue carpenter bee and the cheese snail. For more information, visit: nationaltrust.org.uk/harting-down.
