Please note that these dates can change due to weather and will be updated on a weekly basis. Some towns and parishes have opted to self-deliver their grass cutting programme for 2021, as indicated below. If you require information for those towns and parishes who carry out their own grass cutting, then you would need to contact them directly. East Sussex Highways currently provide 2 standard grass cuts for each town and parish. Those that have 6 grass cuts have paid for this as an additional service.

Consequently, men commemorated at other locations around Ashdown Forest are not covered by this project. Our aim is to produce case studies in chronological order, and we expect to produce 116 in total. This first volume deals with the 46 men who died between the declaration of war on 4 August 1914 and 31 December 1916. We hope you will find these case studies interesting and thought-provoking.

  • In the Matter of St Alban, Frant Judgment
    Neutral Citation Number: [2021] ECC Chi 4 11 March 2021 In the Consistory Court of the Diocese of Chichester Petition No. 1211 In the matter of St Alban, Frant Judgment 1. This is a private petition for the introduction of a memorial into the churchyard of St Alban’s church in the village of Frant, which lies to the north-east of Crowborough. The petitioner is Mr David Huskisson. The proposed memorial is to mark the grave of his late wife, Stella, who was interred in the churchyard in December 2019. 2. The proposed memorial does not come within the categories set out in the Churchyard Regulations for the Diocese of Chichester and, accordingly, the incumbent does not have delegated authority to authorise it. The petitioner has therefore issued these proceedings seeking a faculty. Although neither the incumbent nor the PCC have elected to become a party opponent, the PCC objects to the grant of a faculty for reasons which I will come to. The Court has the benefit of advice from the Diocesan Advisory Committee and the Church Buildings Council, upon which the petitioner, the incumbent and the PCC were given the opportunity to comment. The incumbent sent a short letter in response dated 9 March 2021. The Registry received no objections following public notice. The delegated authority of parochial clergy 3. There is an emerging divergence in practice between diocesan chancellors regarding the status which they afford to their churchyard regulations. As a matter of law, they are no more than instruments of delegation. Their purpose is to prescribe certain categories of memorial which may be introduced into churchyards with the written authority of the incumbent, thereby obviating the need to seek a faculty: See Re St John the Baptist, Adel [2016] ECC Lee 8.
