Andrew Edwards, Chief Executive of Sussex Archaeological Society, said: “We’re passionate about sharing the stories of Sussex – this is our charitable aim: to enable people to enjoy, learn about and have access to the rich heritage of this county.

“To celebrate our 175th anniversary, it seemed fitting to invite people to become part of that history too, with their own inscription on the steps of Lewes Castle or by adopting a piece of one of the stunning mosaics at Fishbourne Roman Palace.”

All step sponsors will receive a personalised authentication certificate signed by Sussex Past Patron, historian, author and broadcaster Tom Holland, who said: “Sponsoring a step at Lewes Castle is an opportunity like no other. This is a chance to be written into Sussex’s history.”
