This is a panoramic view looking west towards Wolstonbury Down, (my favourite hill) in late November.
It is a delightful walk from the Jack and Jill windmills to The Chattri and I thank Pippa for this one.
The Chattri memorial commemorates Sikh and Hindu soldiers who died in Brighton Hospital from the first world war and were cremated at this site. The memorial was unveiled in 1921 by the Prince of Wales. see http://www.black-history.org.uk/indian.asp See also the September entry (in the index at the end) of this blog of a walk with Sussex Pathfinders where your can read the memorial text.
