Beeding Hill to Newtimber Hill is a 321 ha (790-acre) biological and geological Downland Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) north of Shoreham-by-Sea in West Sussex.[1][2] It is a Nature Conservation Review site, Grade 2,[3] and it includes Devil's Dyke Geological Conservation Review site.[4][5]
There are thirteen distinct areas within this SSSI. Most of it is on the north-facing slope of the South Downs on unimproved chalk grassland. Grazed chalk downland, such as this, has a diverse flora with around 40 flowering plants per square metre.[6] There are areas of scrub and in places this scrub has developed into woodland, and there are also some areas of mature beech woodland.
The richest areas are dominated by upright brome and fine-leaved grasses such as sheep's fescue and crested hair-grass. The site supports rare orchid species including frog orchid and in the woodlands, yellow bird's nest and bird's nest orchid. The site supports a nationally important assemblage of the Opilionid group of Arachnids (harvestmen), a locality of the nationally uncommon scarce forester moth and the adonis blue butterfly.[7]
