The village of Wivelsfield appears to have moved a mile away from Lewes in the last half century.
An old sign from the Fifties said the two were eight miles apart while a new sign in the same spot at Wivelsfield says Lewes is now nine miles away.
Either the Earth has moved for the people of Wivelsfield or the world really is a bigger place.
