Park at the football ground at top of Saltdean Vale. Turn right up the hill along the path, bushes give way about half way up to open fields. Continue to the top when you get to another fence going left to right. Turn left here and keep going. Harvey's Cross is about a mile or two along this track, you can't miss it. I can't remember the exact story but Harvey was a chap from a neighbouring town who was riding over the downs to Saltdean when he fell off his horse and hit his head. He died and the family erected the cross. Sadly, idiotic, moronic, and acephalic vandals have attacked it over the years despite its having been refurbished a few years back. It's studded by airgun shots and a piece of the cross is missing. What I'd like to do to these thugs if ever I was lucky enough to catch them....
