No evidence for existence of any place or hill in Sussex called (the) Wormhill. Text appears to be based on the Bignor Hill entry in http://www.sussexarch.org.uk/saaf/dragon.html#main2, which says "Similar legends have been told of ridges around other hills, such as at Wormhill in Derbyshire." My CSD nomination as hoax was removed with comment "Not a hoax. Folklore", but without any comment on the above comment which I had made on the talk page. PamD 18:34, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
