The Seven Sisters

Q. I have searched high, I have searched low!

What are the names of the 7 Sisters in Sussex Cliffs????????

Thanks

Denis Turner

A. The Seven Sisters Cliffs are so called because sailors from days of yore believed that they looked like a row of seven nuns. That's their head gear or wimple. However over time the cliffs have eroded away one of the nuns.
