  • The Catsfield Flyer
    Issue 6 A Message from East Sussex Highways Summer 2012 Summer’s here and plants are in full bloom. While this makes our county The Catsfield Flyer... such a beautiful place to live, it can be bad news on the road, with long grass and hedges covering signs, obstructing pavements and blocking Welcome to our Summer Newsletter 2012 driver’s views. Quote: During the warmer months our road teams are out and about cutting over A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is five million square metres of grass at road verges and junctions, so that blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken. - James Dent drivers can see clearly. We trim the grass twice a year in rural areas, and five times a year in busy urban areas, sometimes more if growth is affecting Diamond Jubilee Celebrations road safety. Some verges contain rare plants and so are uncut while the plants are flowering. And, to make sure that our budget is used where it’s needed, we leave grass clippings uncollected. They are biodegradable and actually help to slow further growth. To make sure the roads remain safe, we ask for your help. Hedges are regularly trimmed on council land, but many roadside hedges belong to private landowners. If someone tells us there’s a problem we ask the landowner to cut them back. If you know of a junction where views are blocked by overgrown hedges or grass, please let us know using the contact details below. We would like to start by saying a Village Voice HUGE THANKYOU ‘Village Voice’ which is featured in the Battle Observer each Friday provides us with a weekly round-up of village events and activities.

  • East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2012 to March 2014
    eastsussex.gov.uk East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2012 to March 2014 2014/15: 458 Introduction The period covered by this annual report – the financial years 2012-2014 – has probably been the most momentous in ESRO’s history as it saw the completion of the project to build and open The Keep. It marked the culmination of seven years’ work by the project partners, East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and The University of Sussex to re-house their archives and other historical resources in a state-of-the-art building, both to ensure their permanent preservation and to increase and broaden access to this unique and irreplaceable material. Practical completion was achieved on 17 June 2013 when the building was handed over by the contractors, Kier. We immediately began to move ESRO material into The Keep, which was not as easy as it sounds – the work required to prepare the archives for transfer and then to move them is described elsewhere in this report. Staff worked long, hard hours preparing and supervising the ESRO removals. It was a remarkable feat and as a result all ESRO’s archives have been listed to at least collection level, packaged and shelved appropriately in a single building and can be tracked around it via the inventory management (barcoding) system. The service we now offer is not merely ESRO in a new building, but has been transformed into a fully integrated partnership, working not just to better but rather transcend what we previously provided. Behind the scenes each partner continues to maintain their individual collections in their separate databases but from the user’s point of view the service is seamless: the online catalogue and ordering system combine information from the three databases and presents them as a single resource on The Keep’s new website, www.thekeep.

  • East Sussex County Council
    FINAL VERSION Electoral Review East Sussex County Council Stage 2 – County Electoral Division (CED) patterns Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England December 2015 1 1 BACKGROUND The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) is an independent body whose main activity is to carry out electoral reviews of principal local authorities in England. The Commission is carrying out a review of East Sussex County Council in a coordinated process alongside simultaneous reviews of all five districts and boroughs within East Sussex. The Commission will ultimately make recommendations to Parliament on the electoral arrangements of the six local authorities in East Sussex, namely: • Council size: the total number of councillors elected to each authority. • The boundaries of district and borough council wards and county electoral divisions (CEDs) – but not the external boundary of any of the authorities. • The number of councillors elected to each ward and CED. • The name of each ward and CED. The new electoral arrangements will come into effect from the next County Council elections in May 2017; Hastings Borough Council elections in 2018 and other district and borough council elections in 2019. Reason for the review This review has been triggered because East Sussex County Council meets the Commission’s intervention criteria due to electoral inequality. The Commission has found significant levels of electoral inequality between county electoral divisions. Since the last review, through development and movement of people, some county councillors now represent more, or many fewer, electors than other councillors. In addition, the Commission considers that two district/borough councils in East Sussex also meet the criteria for review.

  • Ashburnham Place and Family
    ASHBURNHAM PLACE AND FAMILY The Ashburnham family were lords of the village of Ashburnham, and elsewhere, for some 800 years. The village itself was Esseborne in Domesday Book (1086) and Esburneham in the twelfth century; the name is thought to mean ‘meadow by the stream where ash-trees grow’.1 By about 1120 the family had taken its name as their own. It may be that the first of them may have been the feudal lord of Ashburnham in 1086 – Peter de Creil or Criel or Crull, a Norman immigrant awarded land by the Conqueror. For almost all of the remaining time up to living memory – with two intermissions – the Ashburnham estate was owned by this one family. The second such intermission led to a peerage; the first (1611 to 1640) resulted from disastrous financial management.2 The family almost always kept a low national profile, rarely engaging in national politics and reserving their activities for local affairs. Some were lords lieutenant of Sussex. They were probably magistrates throughout the period from 1066 to 1924, when the last earl died (and then again from 1935 to 1953), but they went through hard times in the early and mid- seventeenth century through remaining Roman Catholic (an allegiance that ceased very shortly afterwards) and taking the side of the King in the civil war. The family was also heavily involved in the iron-smelting industry. They began it at Ashburnham in 1549, and it kept going to be the last furnace in Sussex, closing in 1813;3 it carried on as a forge, using metal from elsewhere, until 1827.4 They did not enter the peerage until 1689, when on 30 May James II created the barony of Ashburnham.
