Mills Rocks is a 1.9-hectare (4.7-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest south-east of East Grinstead in West Sussex.[1][2]
This site has rock outcrops with a number of rare plants, such as reed fescue grass at one of its only two locations in southern England. The rocks also support a rich variety of mosses and liverworts. There are also areas of woodland, bracken and bramble.[3]
The site is private land but a public footpath runs through it.
