Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sugar Loaf, Wood's Corner, East Sussex, near to Dallington, East Sussex, Great Britain.

The folly which stands 35 feet (10.6m) high, is said to have been built after a bet between John 'Mad Jack' Fuller (squire of the hamlet of Brightling) and a neighbouring squire that he could see the Spire of St Giles, Dallington from his house. When he realized that this was not true he had workmen erect the folly in order to win the bet.

It is one of eight follies and structures built by 'Mad Jack' Fuller.

Despite its small size it is believed to have been used as a dwelling until the 1930s.
