Story · Long Man of Wilmington

  • en
  • nl

You're standing at the foot of Windover Hill, just outside the little village of Wilmington in East Sussex. Look up at that steep slope. There he is: the Long Man, a white giant about seventy-two metres tall, holding a long staff in each hand. He's one of only two major human hill figures left in England. The other is the Cerne Abbas Giant, near Dorchester.
