"Sussex by the Sea" (also known as "A Horse Galloping") is a song written in 1907 by William Ward-Higgs, often considered to be the unofficial county anthem of Sussex.[1] It became well known throughout Sussex and is regularly sung at celebrations throughout the county. It can be heard during many sporting events in the county,[1] during the Sussex bonfire celebrations[1] and it is played by marching bands and Morris dancers across Sussex. It is the adopted song of Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club, Sussex Division Royal Naval Reserve (now closed), Sussex Association of Naval Officers and Sussex County Cricket Club.
