There are 931 scheduled monuments in the county of East Sussex, England.[1] These protected sites date from the Neolithic period and include barrows, moated sites, ruined abbeys, Iron Age hillforts, and a hill figure.[2] In the United Kingdom, the scheduling of monuments was first initiated to ensure the preservation of "nationally important" archaeological sites or historic buildings. Protection is given to scheduled monuments under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979.[3]
