A grant of £48,000 from the Wellcome Trust for the History of Medicine enabled us to employ two full-time project Other records: officers and some additional conservation time to list and preserve the records of the • Aerial photographs of Brighton and Hove; 1948 (9348) pioneering Lady Chichester Hospital, Hove.

Our other main external bidding activity during the year was to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), for a grant to draw up an audience development and access plan for the service, and specifically for the proposed new Record Office. Such a plan, which aims to find ways of improving the number and range of people who are reached by our service, will be an essential element of a future major capital bid to the HLF for a new Record Office. On the advice of the HLF we also included in the bid some audience development work for a proposed digitisation project which we have been planning with the county’s library service and museums. This delayed the submission of the bid until November of 2005 and we finally learnt of our success in early April of 2006. The grant of up to £24,700 will enable the work to be undertaken in 2006/07. Other funding successes were smaller but no less important. Wendy Walker, the Project Leader for the new Record Office, was awarded one of only six fundraising bursaries for staff working in libraries, archives and museums across the south-east. The bursaries, worth £4,000, have been made available for the first time by SEMLAC, the South East Museum, Library and Archives Council (now MLA South East), and are part of a programme aiming to increase the level of skills and confidence of the sector as a whole in the important area of fundraising. The bursaries attracted a lot of interest. Wendy won the award against stiff opposition from candidates across the region and was the only archivist to be successful. The bursary enabled Wendy to attend several workshops and a week-long course at the National Arts Fundraising School in Scotland, and workshops continued into the new financial year. Wendy’s new skills will help us to draw up a fund-raising strategy for the new Record Office and for the service as a whole.

    HERSTMONCEUX AND WARTLING PARISH NEWS May 2020 50p This Month Reverend Richard writes the letter from the Rectory; Rev Peter’s Green Page; Melinda’s Famous Hymns column covers " Alleluia, Alleluia, Give Thanks to the Risen Lord ", plus the regular columns and news from around the parishes 1 From the Rectory Dear Friends, I am writing this on Easter Monday the headline in front of me says “The future of the virus unknowable” says the health secretary as over 10,000 related deaths have been recorded in our Hospitals. This sounds to me like we need some solid hope and I suspect that in May this will still be the case. However the Queen’s message for Easter yesterday did give hope and also food for thought in the midst of this dark time, and just to remind you, Easter is not over yet, it covers a period of 40 days, and every Sunday throughout the Christian year is also a celebration of Easter day. Here is a section of her address: “This year, Easter will be different for many of us, but by keeping apart we keep others safe. But Easter isn’t cancelled; indeed, we need Easter as much as ever. The discovery of the risen Christ on the first Easter Day gave his followers new hope and fresh purpose, and we can all take heart from this. We know that Coronavirus will not overcome us. As dark as death can be — particularly for those suffering with grief — light and life are greater. May the living flame of the Easter hope be a steady guide as we face the future”.

  • Highways & Byways in Sussex
    Highways & Byways in Sussex by E. V. Lucas (1904) CHAPTER XXXIV: EASTBOURNE Eastbourne is the most select, or least democratic, of the Sussex watering places. Fashion does not resort thither as to Brighton in the season, but the crowds of excursionists that pour into Brighton and Hastings are comparatively unknown at Eastbourne; which is in a sense a private settlement, under the patronage of the Duke of Devonshire. Hastings is of the people; Brighton has a character almost continental; Eastbourne is select. Lawn tennis and golf are its staple products, one played on the very beautiful links behind the town hard by Compton Place, the residence of the Duke; the other in Devonshire Park. It is also an admirable town for horsemanship. … The Martello towers, which Pitt built during the Napoleonic scare at the beginning of last century, begin at Eastbourne, where the cliffs cease, and continue along the coast into Kent. They were erected probably quite as much to assist in allaying public fear by a tangible and visible symbol of defense as from any idea that they would be a real service in the event of invasion. Many of them have now disappeared. BEACHY HEAD Eastbourne's glory is Beachy Head, the last of the Downs, which stop dead at the town The Beekeeper’s Apprentice Common Core study unit—www.LaurieRKing.com and never reappear in Sussex again. The range takes a sudden turn to the south at Folkington, whence it rolls straight for the sea, Beachy Head being the ultimate eminence. (The name Beachy has, by the way, nothing to do with the beach: it is derived probably from the Normans' description—"beau chef.") About Beachy Head one has the South Downs in perfection: the best turf, the best prospect, the best loneliness, and the best air.

  • Forest Row Men Who Died in the Great War
    Forest Row Men who died in the Great War A casual reader of any village war memorial would assume that the list was complete, local, and represented families who had lived in the area for generations. In fact, research into the World War I War Memorial at Forest Row shows that this was far from true. Also, the Memorial and Book of Remembrance in Holy Trinity Church are not exhaustive, as other war dead are buried in the local cemetery. The Memorial Book is a thing of beauty, written in an elegant hand, in red and black ink, recording each man’s name, rank and number; regiment; where, when and how killed; parents’ names; birthplace; where buried; and the name of the informant. Only 24 of the 65 men remembered were born in the parish; of these, a mere 11 had spent most of their lives in the village before going to war. Another 10 were born in nearby parishes: Withyham, Hartfield, Horsted Keynes, East Grinstead and Felbridge. These were Albert Victor Brand, Raymond Cox, Thomas James Draper, Frederick Robert Edwards, Archibald Frederick Gladman, Frederick Holmwood, Albert Mills, James Simmonds, Philip Tomsett and Frederick Percy Webber. The 11 purely local men were: Edward James Luxford, house painter; Albert Mitchell, golf caddie and cousin of Abe Mitchell the famous golfer; Harry Page, builder’s labourer; Cyril Charles Robinson, clerk at Magnet’s Works, and son of the butler at Ashdown Park; Robert Charles Robson, himself a butler; brothers Alfred Jesse and William Thomas Sands, messenger boy with the General Post Office and apprentice draper respectively; Jack Frederick Sippetts; Albert Ernest Standen Tomsett, an apprentice at the cycle works; Albert James Upton and Eric Gordon Waters, electrical engineer.
