Sussex Past is inviting families to celebrate Mother’s Day with a special day out, offering free entry for mums, grandmas and female role models to its heritage sites on Sunday 15 March when accompanied by a paying guest.

Visitors can explore some of Sussex’s most fascinating historic places, including Anne of Cleves House, once owned by the fourth wife of King Henry VIII; Fishbourne Roman Palace, Britain’s largest Roman residence and home to a remarkable collection of mosaics; Lewes Castle, with sweeping views across the Sussex countryside; Michelham Priory, known for its tranquil gardens and historic buildings; and The Priest House, a picturesque 15th-century timber-framed home located in the High Weald AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) in Mid Sussex.

There is no need to book in advance. Visitors can simply arrive on the day, or pre-book tickets for the paying guests in their group, with the free guest admitted on arrival.

Members of The Sussex Archaeological Society, which owns and cares for Sussex Past heritage sites, receive free entry to all sites as part of their membership.
