Reporting Problems
East Sussex are responsible for highways and public rights of way. Other problems (eg fly-tipping, waste bins, abandoned vehicles etc.) are generally handled by either Rother or Hastings, depending on whose area they are in. Fly-tipping and abandoned vehicles should also be reported to the police along with any other illegal activity carried out in the Park.
