	History of the Sussex Ouse Navigation
		The Sussex Ouse was a rural navigation and, unlike many of its contemporaries in the Midlands and the North, served no large industrial towns.
		Today the Ouse is managed by the Environment Agency and is utilised as a source of drinking water and as a conduit for treated sewage as well as providing drainage for the surrounding area.
		There is little recreational activity on the river at present, partly due to the strong tidal current in the lower reaches and to inaccessibility in the higher reaches.

	Earliest Englishman
		It is spread over a considerable area in the basin of the Sussex river Ouse–that is, the country drained by this river– and the gravel was doubtless deposited by the Ouse long before it flowed in its present bed.
		Therefore the Sussex Ouse and the other rivers of this part of England which rise in the Weald can only collect clay and sand and bits of sandstone and ironstone to carry along in the stream when they wear away the bedrock of the country through which they run.
		In the basin of the river Ouse, the gravel at Piltdown is thus the oldest of those which have been stranded during the wanderings and changes of this river.
