The elevations are brick and tile beneath tiled roofs. Originally built as a Hall House for the De Warbleten family it has been dendro-dated by the University of Nottingham to be 1292 CE. There have only been three owners throughout this time. In the last 28 years the present owners have sympathetically restored and improved the property which now forms a very comfortable, well appointed and much loved family home. The accommodation is spaciously planned with large and well proportioned rooms with good ceiling heights. There are many historic features including a significant arched beam with dog tooth moulding forming part of the original construction and which gives the house its 2* Listing. The front door opens into a delightful reception hall with wood burner. The handsome drawing room is double aspect with views over the garden and has an open fireplace. The dining room also has an open fireplace while the sitting room has a wood burning stove. The large farmhouse kitchen is a wonderful family entertaining area with an Aga and separate larder, it adjoins a traditional 18th century Bake House which serves as a garden and boot room. There are two separate cellars at either ends of the house, one with slate wine bins. A Jacobean staircase leads to the first floor which has a principal suite comprising a double aspect bedroom, study, dressing room/ bedroom and bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, an office, a bathroom and shower room. Above is a further bedroom with bathroom en suite and access to two attic rooms. At the north end of the house a separate staircase leads to a further bedroom and additional attic room. The house is heated by air source heat pumps and an oil-fired boiler as back up. THE OUTBUILDINGS These comprise a recently constructed triple garage 29’ x 20’11 and log store in traditional style, blending with the house. The garage has two open bays and a bay with double doors. To the rear of the house there is a brick and tile small barn/workshop and a wood shed, together with a ragstone and slate garden store. THE GARDENS AND GROUNDS These form a wonderful setting being approached down a gravel drive of some length with a spinney to one side with a mass of Spring bulbs, and culminating in a circular driveway with central lawn and ample parking space in front of the garage. The West facing garden to the front of the house has mature trees and shrubs and is bordered by pleached hornbeams separating it from the South-facing rear garden. A gate leads to the South-facing garden which benefits from a large lawn, pond, wild flower meadow and a paved terrace adjacent to the house, an elegant south-facing brick wall supports a flower border, there are also a summer house and a greenhouse. A small stream with deep protective banks runs down one side of the garden and there is an orchard to the rear accessed by bridges, this stocks apples, plums, mulberry, pears, a walnut and ornamental trees. Part of the original glebe forms a 4.1 acre field of ancient pasture to the front of the house. In all about 7.33 acres.

  • Adherents from the Rape of Hastings and Pevensey Lowey of the Jack Cade Rebellion of 1450 Who Were Pardonned
    Adherents from the Rape of Hastings and Pevensey Lowey of the Jack Cade Rebellion of 1450 who were pardonned In June 1450 Jack Cade became leader of an originally Kentish rebellion of small property holders penalised by high taxes. The rebellion spread to involve men from neighbouring counties, especially Sussex. Cade assumed the name John Mortimer and demanded the removal of several of the King’s chief ministers and the recall of Richard, Duke of York. The rebel forces defeated a royal army at Sevenoaks, Kent, on 18 June, and went on to London. There the rebels executed the lord treasurer, James Fiennes. A degree of lawlessness followed and Londoners drove the rebels from the city on 5-6 July. The government persuaded many of the rebels to disperse by offering pardons, but Cade continued his activities. He was chased down, wounded and captured at Cade Street near Heathfield, Sussex, on 12 July, and died of his wounds whilst being transported to London. The list below is of those from the Rape of Hastings and Lowey of Pevensey who had taken part in or supported the rebellion and were granted pardons. It gives a good indication of how widespread this rebellion was. It attracted adherents from across the social spectrum and involved whole communities. Undoubtedly there was no way the normal severe capital retributions could be used to punish all those involved or whole communities would have been decimated and made unproductive, but some ringleaders were singled out and executed.

  • World War One: the Deaths of Those Associated with Battle and District
    WORLD WAR ONE: THE DEATHS OF THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH BATTLE AND DISTRICT This article cannot be more than a simple series of statements, and sometimes speculations, about each member of the forces listed. The Society would very much appreciate having more information, including photographs, particularly from their families. CONTENTS Page Introduction 1 The western front 3 1914 3 1915 8 1916 15 1917 38 1918 59 Post-Armistice 82 Gallipoli and Greece 83 Mesopotamia and the Middle East 85 India 88 Africa 88 At sea 89 In the air 94 Home or unknown theatre 95 Unknown as to identity and place 100 Sources and methodology 101 Appendix: numbers by month and theatre 102 Index 104 INTRODUCTION This article gives as much relevant information as can be found on each man (and one woman) who died in service in the First World War. To go into detail on the various campaigns that led to the deaths would extend an article into a history of the war, and this is avoided here. Here we attempt to identify and to locate the 407 people who died, who are known to have been associated in some way with Battle and its nearby parishes: Ashburnham, Bodiam, Brede, Brightling, Catsfield, Dallington, Ewhurst, Mountfield, Netherfield, Ninfield, Penhurst, Robertsbridge and Salehurst, Sedlescombe, Westfield and Whatlington. Those who died are listed by date of death within each theatre of war. Due note should be taken of the dates of death particularly in the last ten days of March 1918, where several are notional. Home dates may be based on registration data, which means that the year in 1 question may be earlier than that given.

  • Local Resident's Submissions to the Wealden District Council Electoral
    Local resident’s submissions to the Wealden District Council electoral review This PDF document contains submissions from local residents Some versions of Adobe allow the viewer to move quickly between bookmarks. 6/7/2016 Local Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Wealden District Personal Details: Name: Nick Richards E­mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: As a resident of a village in the SE section of the proposed Horam and Punnetts Town Ward, I consider that the Commission's recommendation for it to be a large two member ward is flawed and I strongly support WDC's proposal for it to be divided into two single member wards. In order for them to properly reflect the interests and identity of the community, we expect our district councillors to have a detailed knowledge of and affinity to the ward they represent, but the proposed ward is geographically so large that will be impossible for them to do so effectively. It is also divided between the economically larger and more densely populated area centred on Horam to the West and the collection of more sparsely populated and very rural villages in the East, mainly within the existing Warbleton Parish area. These two communities are different and inevitably face different issues and have different priorities. The likely result of the Commission's recommendation being implemented is that the two councillors will be forced into some sort of informal arrangement to divide the ward, which could not be formally recognised or publicised. Surely it is a far better solution to establish two separate one member wards as proposed by WDC, particularly as they seem to have adequately addressed the Commission's concern over the number of electors each councillor should represent.
