I have pat@ashdownforest.org The threatened habitats of Ashdown Forest Ashdown Forest is all common land and the Board of Conservators is responsible for managing it. The Board was first established in 1887 to protect the rights of the Commoners and establish the Bye- laws. The Forest is actually owned by the Ashdown Forest Trust for the benefit of the public and was set up when Earl De La Warr decided to sell the Forest in 1988. The Forest is part of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is included within the European Natura HEATHLAND 2000 Network because it hosts some of Europe’s most Heathland plant species frequently adapted to thrive under the Commoners’ farming system. Bracken, threatened species and habitats. almost certainly the most frequent species on the whole Forest, was managed by the Commoners as a straw substitute. Once it was no longer cut and collected, it spread. It expanded further due to arson fires The High Weald is one of the most wooded areas in the UK which suppressed competing vegetation. but, over the centuries, the Commoners on the Forest have maintained areas of heathland through a combination of Gorse, protected by its spikes, spreads especially where the ground is disturbed.

  • The History of Nutley by Colin Hobbs Pdf File
    The History of Nutley by Colin Hobbs. Nutley comprised mainly the manors of Duddleswell and Maresfield together with Masketts, a member of the latter, Courtlands alias Newenham which had some 20 acres lying over from Fletching to the south of Fords Green, and an acre or two at Pricketts Hatch belonging to the Fletching manor of Tarring Peverel. Also a three acre piece of the Withyham manor of Fiscaridge which lay to the south of Bell Lane near to its junction with the main road. The parish of Maresfield does not figure in the Domesday Book although most of its neighbours do. It is though, inconceivable that our Saxon ancestors did not penetrate the wilderness a little further on to Nutley. Indeed the name Sale, a suffix, occurs in old documents in a wide band from Nutley Street westwards to and including the present Hole and Alchorns Farm. This is the latter day form of the Saxon word gesell, meaning a shelter for pig drovers. Down Street runs south in an almost straight line to Isfield where it joins the road to the Downs at South Malling, an early settlement of the South Saxons. This is undoubtedly one of the ancient drof ways leading into the Weald. Another was via Mark Street to Fletching and the many villages in the Downs west of Lewes. A further track leads from Horsted Keynes via the Woolpit Oak to the forest at Pricketts Hatch. The Weald was settled from the Downlands at an early stage but the outliers were taxed with the parent manor.

  • The Lordship of Chiddingly, Sussex the Manor of Chiddingly Extends Into the Parishes of Chiddingly, Waldron, Willingdon and Hartfield
    The Lordship of Chiddingly, Sussex The Manor of Chiddingly extends into the parishes of Chiddingly, Waldron, Willingdon and Hartfield. At Domesday it was held by Ralph and Godwin from the Count of Mortain. In the reigns of Edward II and Edward III Chiddingly belonged to the de la Beche family. Nicholas de la Beche obtained a grant of free warren here in 1319, and licence to crenellate his house at Chiddingly together with others at Wallington and Aldworth, Buckinghamshire. He was made Constable of the Tower of London in 1366 and was summoned to Parliament on February 5 1342. A year later he became Seneschal of Gascogny and in 1344 was one of the commissioners who treated with King Alfonso of Castile for a marriage between John of Gaunt, Edward III’s son, and Joan of Castile. Nicholas died without issue in 1347 when Chiddingly passed to his niece, Joan, who married Sir Andrew Sackville. It remained in the Sackville family, whose descent follows, until recently.
