Former Worthing and Haywards Heath prop Joe Marler has made the British Lions squad.
But there is no place on the tour to New Zealand for fellow Sussex boys Joe Launchbury and Dylan Hartley.
Sam Warburton skippers the party for the second time.
Marler’s selection comes as reward for his part in England’s title success in the Six Nations following rapid recovery from injury.
