  • Boating on Sussex Rivers
    K1&A - Soo U n <zj r \ I A t 1" BOATING ON SUSSEX RIVERS NRA National Rivers Authority Southern Region Guardians of the Water Environment BOATING ON SUSSEX RIVERS Intro duction NRA The Sussex Rivers have a unique appeal, with their wide valleys giving spectacular views of Chalk Downs within sight and smell of the sea. There is no better way to enjoy their natural beauty and charm than by boat. A short voyage inland can reveal some of the most attractive and unspoilt scenery in the Country. The long tidal sections, created over the centuries by flashy Wealden Rivers carving through the soft coastal chalk, give public rights of navigation well into the heartland of Sussex. From Rye in the Eastern part of the County, small boats can navigate up the River Rother to Bodiam with its magnificent castle just 16 miles from the sea. On the River Arun, in an even shorter distance from Littlehampton Harbour, lies the historic city of Arundel in the heart of the Duke of Norfolk’s estate. But for those with more energetic tastes, Sussex rivers also have plenty to offer. Increased activity by canoeists, especially by Scouting and other youth organisations has led to the setting up of regular canoe races on the County’s rivers in recent years. CARING FOR OUR WATERWAYS The National Rivers Authority welcomes all river users and seeks their support in preserving the tranquillity and charm of the Sussex rivers. This booklet aims to help everyone to enjoy their leisure activities in safety and to foster good relations and a spirit of understanding between river users.

  • 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.

  • Piddinghoe, East Sussex June 2019
    The Villager Piddinghoe, East Sussex June 2019 The Villager • June 2019 • Issue 137 EDITORIAL Half the year over and done with. First half was spent, seemingly, living out the plot of ‘Le Hoe de Piding’. Second half, we predict, will be more of the same (but much worse) and satire will become no laughing matter. Into our midst (thank god, 60 miles away) came the leader of the Free World. Her Majesty, unfortunately for her, was held prisoner and in a matter of a couple of days earned every penny of her annual stipend given her by a grateful nation. The highlight was the photo of the Downing Street cat, Larry, sitting under Mr President’s car – The Beast – treating it as nothing more than a handy place to keep its fur dry while it rained. The cat had put the car in its place. The Beast?.... so what! No beasts around here, apart from a young weasel seen enthusiastically exploring the south end of the village. This is the kind of thing that Angie would write about in her ‘Grass Roots’ articles but Angie is on holiday. Also missing is ‘Art Jottings’ because Gill is very involved with her new puppy. Welcome to Piddinghoe, Alfie! Both Angie and Gill will return. ’Piddinghoe People’ appears in a slightly different format to focus on Guylee Simmonds, who is packing into the next few months more than most of us would dare do in a lifetime. Guylee’s idea of a cruise is not what one sees in the newspaper supplements. We wish him well, and above all, a safe journey.

  • Urban People and Wildlife : Biodiversity Action Plan for the Urban Areas of Sussex
    Habitat Action Plan for Sussex Urban People and Wildlife : Biodiversity Action Plan for the Urban Areas of Sussex 1. Introduction and Definition One of the most urgent environmental problems we are facing in the 21 st Century is the loss of global biodiversity. As 90% of the population live in cities, towns and villages, it is here that this loss will have the most impact on our quality of life. The increasing density and the intensity of urban living has a major impact on the environment and our use of natural resources. Although we are part of the problem, we are also part of the solution. People and Wildlife : Biodiversity Action Plan for the Urban Areas of Sussex sets out the action necessary to maintain and enhance the variety of life all around us. The underlying principle of People and Wildlife (Sussex Urban BAP) is that a healthy environment is an essential requirement for both our quality of life and for wildlife. We can achieve this through changing our attitudes and actions towards the natural environment within our everyday lives by: • Encouraging everyone to make environmentally informed decisions as our actions can and do affect the environment; • Looking at actions we can take as individuals or as members of a community based group, part of a school or college, employer or employee of a business or as decision-makers who help shape local policies; • Recognising that biodiversity is an essential indicator of the health of the environment and hence our quality of life. The Government has made clear the links between biodiversity, quality of life and sustainable development.
