Litlington White Horse, Hill figure in Seaford, England.

The Litlington White Horse stretches 93 feet in length and 65 feet in height on Hindover Hill, overlooking the River Cuckmere in East Sussex.

Created in 1836 by four local men, the figure underwent reconstruction in 1924 by descendants who completed the work during a single night.

The chalk horse belongs to a tradition of hill carvings in England, joining the Long Man of Wilmington as one of two major figures in East Sussex.

Regular maintenance by National Trust volunteers ensures the preservation of the horse through cleaning and repairs, preventing grass from obscuring the figure.

During World War II, officials covered the horse to prevent enemy aircraft from using it as a navigation point, which altered its shape after uncovering.
