Seaford Head would appear level with Beachy Head on a flat plane, and 27.6 meters above Beacky Head on a globe.
The angular size of Beachy Haed as seen from Worthing on a flat plane is only 0.13 degrees (compared to the angular size of the sun at 0.5 degrees). In the real world this shallow angle is where refraction is the greatest as seen with zoomed in images of the sun during sunset.
