The Southdowns Natural Mineral Water supplies Tropic 4 Cancer transatlantic challenge

Posted on September 14th, 2013

THE Southdowns Natural Mineral WaterFresh drinking water supplies for the Tropic 4 Cancer transatlantic challenge are being provided by The Southdowns Natural Mineral Water of Windsor House. Richard will be taking 120 litres of fresh water for the crossing.

The Southdowns Natural Mineral Water is drawn from over 400ft underground, enriched with minerals deep from within the Sussex Downs and is untouched at source – producing water of unrivalled quality and taste.

The spring was first tapped in 1918, to provide a supply of fresh water to a US Air Force airfield. After the war, the water was used to supply local houses and even a local ice factory. Today the demand is so great that the spring is licensed to supply 45 million litres a year. In 1990 the Windsor family decided to uncap the well and share this quality source of Natural Mineral Water with the rest of the UK.
