  • 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.

  • Roads in the Battle District: an Introduction and an Essay On
    ROADS IN THE BATTLE DISTRICT: AN INTRODUCTION AND AN ESSAY ON TURNPIKES In historic times travel outside one’s own parish was difficult, and yet people did so, moving from place to place in search of work or after marriage. They did so on foot, on horseback or in vehicles drawn by horses, or by water. In some areas, such as almost all of the Battle district, water transport was unavailable. This remained the position until the coming of the railways, which were developed from about 1800, at first very cautiously and in very few districts and then, after proof that steam traction worked well, at an increasing pace. A railway reached the Battle area at the beginning of 1852. Steam and the horse ruled the road shortly before the First World War, when petrol vehicles began to appear; from then on the story was one of increasing road use. In so far as a road differed from a mere track, the first roads were built by the Roman occupiers after 55 AD. In the first place roads were needed for military purposes, to ensure that Roman dominance was unchallenged (as it sometimes was); commercial traffic naturally used them too. A road connected Beauport with Brede bridge and ran further north and east from there, and there may have been a road from Beauport to Pevensey by way of Boreham Street. A Roman road ran from Ore to Westfield and on to Sedlescombe, going north past Cripps Corner. There must have been more. BEFORE THE TURNPIKE It appears that little was done to improve roads for many centuries after the Romans left.

  • 349 Sunday Bus – Latest (Good!) News (A Message from Campaign for Better Transport East Sussex): the Sunday Bus Linking Hastin
    349 Sunday Bus – latest (good!) news (A message from Campaign for Better Transport East Sussex): The Sunday bus linking Hastings – Sedlescombe – Staplecross – Bodiam – Sandhurst – Hawkhurst and Cranbrook will continue to run ‘through to the end of September’. This good news was confirmed last week by Stagecoach. The ‘summer’ Sunday service re-started in March 2017 after a gap of three years and the passenger numbers through last summer were ‘encouraging’. A much longer period had elapsed since the last winter service ran.To the credit of all parties, following last summer’s service reintroduction, the 349 has run right through this winter (as I write, temperatures have dived from spring levels in mid February to sub-arctic conditions as we reach March!). Users have been hugely grateful. Passengers on the Sunday bus have included individuals and small groups of all ages, making journeys for a whole range of purposes: going to work, for walks, lunches, to visitor attractions, church, visiting friends and families – with a good sprinkling of domestic and international tourists. There are clearly ‘two way flows’ – both within the urban area of Hastings, and to, from and within the country areas right to the High Weald villages and towns of East Sussex and Kent. In all seasons, there were some passengers who took advantage of the connection in Cranbrook with Arriva service 5 to travel on towards Maidstone. The numbers of trips taken evidence the usefulness of the route to many, especially those who do not or cannot drive. Clearly, the main attractor on the route is Bodiam Castle (National Trust), while Bodiam station on the Kent and East Sussex Steam Railway is also a draw: these two between them attract around 300,000 visitors a year.

  • The Dragon's Teeth of Cripp's Corner
    The Dragon’s Teeth of Cripp’s Corner - The Hidden Evidence of Britain’s Anti-Invasion Defences of 1940 This corner of Southern England is rightly known for its strategic position in defending Britain’s front line from invasion or attack from across the Channel. The visual evidence for this, that spans more than two thousand years, can be seen throughout East Sussex and the Romney Marsh; from the prehistoric hillfort on the Isle of Oxney to the Military Canal on Romney Marsh and its corresponding coastal line of Martello Towers. To the west lies the Roman shore fort of Anderida at Pevensey, Norman castles in Hastings and Lewes, and the later medieval castles at Bodiam and Herstmonceux. The presence of battlefield sites of national importance at Hastings (1066) and Lewes (1264) give silent testimony to the fierce conflicts fought close to our homes in centuries past. But here at Cripp’s Corner there is important evidence too of the most recent anti-invasion fortifications dating back to the Summer of 1940. Hidden amongst the hedgerows is the best-preserved example in Britain of an almost complete and undisturbed tactically important “Stop Line”, hurriedly constructed after the disaster of Dunkirk to defend southern England from an expected German invasion. Hitler’s invasion plan, codenamed Operation Seelöwe or Sealion, was a grim reality in those darkest of days of World War Two, making the threat of invasion very real. Back in 1939 the Germans had identified Camber Sands, Winchelsea, Bexhill and Cuckmere Haven as the most suitable landing sites, should a seaborne invasion of Britain prove necessary.
