Mountains and Hills of England - South East England

South East England

South East England, including East Anglia and London, is also predominantly flat. The underlying rock is chalk, and meaningful heights are only attained in the Chiltern Hills (Haddington Hill: 267 m), the North Wessex Downs (Walbury Hill: 297 m), the North Downs (Leith Hill: 294 m) and the South Downs (which includes the chalk cliffs at Beachy Head and Seven Sisters).

    To lib and die in Dixie!
    Away, away, away down South in Dixie!

    Everybody ought to have a lower East Side in their life.
    Irving Berlin (1888–1989)

    I reverently believe that the Maker who made us all makes everything in New England but the weather. I don’t know who makes that, but I think it must be raw apprentices in the weather-clerk’s factory who experiment and learn how.... In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four-and-twenty hours.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
