It’s no different when publishing magazines! Some months we have very last minute changes to the content - we are always as flexible as possible but there’s always an absolute cut-off too. One of the beneficiaries of such circumstances this month is a competition held by Hurstpierpoint Bowling Club last month. I was very pleased to be invited to take part, which I did with my daughter, in this new event. See page 18 for more information and lots of photos - how many people do you recognise? As always there’s plenty of news from the village, which start right over the page. I’m very grateful to Hurst resident Sophia Hunnisett for her putting together an article which goes some way to explain the relevance of the names of the new roads around the village. It was a lovely idea, and we are pleased to be able to share it. Read more on page 22. Deb Hollywood went out to the theatre recently. Well, technically, went to the garden of the New Inn! But read what you may have missed on page 29. Belle Amatt shares a great-sounding chicken recipe on page 32. Be warned, if it’s not dinner time - you might wish it was! The new school term starts shortly which provides the perfect excuse to mix up our popular 5 Mins With feature. I am very grateful to two Hurst residents and Downlands students for taking time out to answer our regular questions. Read about Emily Chinn and Louie Garnet on page 40. And if you would like to appear in this feature - do please email in your answers to editor@ hurstlife.co.uk. I hope you enjoy reading this, our largest issue yet, and if you have any ideas about future content do please get in touch - we’d love to hear from you.

Old and current staff mingled with former and current governors, PTA members and local residents as well as Rose’s former teachers during a summer afternoon tea held in July to wish her well in her well-earned retirement after seven successful years as Head of Downlands Community School. Di Hunt, the current Chair of Governors, gave a moving speech about the fantastic contribution Rose has made to the school and the local community during her time at the school. Mark Wignall takes over as new Headteacher from this month. Mr Wignall was previously one of the school’s deputy headteachers. The Governors of the Hassocks school felt that Mr Wignall was the best candidate to continue moving Downlands forward. “With the major build project on the horizon and an increase in pupil numbers we are sure that Mr Wignall will do an excellent job in maintaining the values and ethos of the school,” one commented.

Many residents of the village will have noticed the closing of the opticians practice on the High Street before the summer. So, what’s happening with it? Hurstpierpoint resident Vicki Macken bought the previous practice from Mr Chapple back in June with her business partner Paul Watts. However, the expectation was that it would be possible to build a wheelchair lift to ensure full disability access to the shop - which is a requirement for new NHS practices. Just last month they found out that it wasn’t practical to make the lift work at that premises. The situation now stands that Vicki and Paul have Marram launches had to temporarily transfer all the patient records to Hassocks Eyecare Centre (their existing business) while they are actively seeking a suitable building to yoga classes become available on the High Street in Hurstpierpoint. “Paul and I are keen to be in the village, so the High Street business Marram Trading is opening its doors search now begins for somewhere with wide doors in the evenings to a new type of trade. and no step!

The Kristal Flow Yoga sessions will take place every Tuesday night between 7-8pm, starting on 6th September. More details from Marram, 113 High Street.

It’s issue number 32 and we are looking forward to November in the village. But I wanted to briefly remind readers why we are here… Our strapline is ‘local village talk, by the village’ and, as such, hopefully it’s clear that we love community. We try to get involved ourselves as much as possible – Michele Copeland works hard to get out to meetings and talk to people. But we also love it when you, the readers, get in touch and want to contribute in some way. It could be anything from a short What’s On entry to you putting together an article about a village group/organisation that you are involved with. Do have a think about whether there’s something you’d like to share on our pages, and send us an email when you’re ready (editor@ hurstlife.co.uk). This month’s cover comes courtesy of Claire Brewer, and gives a colourful nod to our pages of Hurst Festival round-up, which start on page 6, with words by Charlotte Snook. We have to mention the wonderful bonfire atDanny House – it’s on Sunday 5th November and all the details can be found on page 5.

  • Hurstpierpoint Society: Village Heritage Walk Early Times: a Roman Road Ran to the South of the Village, with a Villa Nearby, Bu
    Hurstpierpoint Society: Village heritage walk Early times: A Roman road ran to the south of the village, with a villa nearby, but the present village dates from Saxon times. Hurst was the Saxon word for a wooded hill. It runs along a Greensand ridge, providing fertile soil rather than the clay lands to north and south. In the Domesday Book, 1086, there were 43 households, 3 mills and 8 slaves. It was held by the Pierpoint family, who came from Normandy with William the Conqueror. By Tudor times most of the area formed part of the Danny estate. Danny is a large house to the south, now an old people’s home, but built about 1585 as a hunting lodge. 1. From the car park notice board, turn towards the Community Charity shop. Go left up steps into the Village Garden. See the sculptures of children. The memorial to the Pierpoints stands here. To the roundabout and across Cuckfield Road 2. Lamb House was built as a coaching inn in about 1835, when the new turnpike road came straight down from the north. It was hoped that the London to Brighton stage coaches would follow that road (see the arch through to stables and barns) but they continued to use the road near Hassocks. The disappointed landlord changed it to an inn and it is now a private house. Turn right on Albourne Road. 3. The war memorial was erected in 1922. The medieval church was pulled down, allegedly because of the cost of repairs, and the present one built 1843-45, designed by Charles Barry who was the architect for the Houses of Parliament.

You’re more than likely reading this after the wonderful St Lawrence Fair – although a few copies will have been around at our stall on the day. Production cycles dictate that you’ll have to wait until the August issue to see the photos of the day – so look out for that next month. We can share some of the preamble though, check out page 5 for news of Hurst’s Got Talent and the pet show. On page 14 there’s something new launching at the Health Centre on Trinity Road – see the feature by Physio Science where they introduce the team of physios and sports injury specialists. Prue Heron shares with us news and photos of last month’s very successful Open Gardens event in the village. See page 16 for that write-up. In line with the recent St Lawrence Fair on the rec, Michele Copeland sits down with Robert Harris, one of the Harris Brothers. The funfair has been part of the event for the last 100 years. Robert tells the story of how the funfair came into being and just what it takes to ensure a Victorian attraction keeps going! Read about him on page 22.
