    Grass Cutting Schedule – 2021 Last updated 16/04/21 This schedule shows current scheduled dates for grass cutting. Please note that these dates can change due to weather and will be updated on a weekly basis. Some towns and parishes have opted to self-deliver their grass cutting programme for 2021, as indicated below. If you require information for those towns and parishes who carry out their own grass cutting, then you would need to contact them directly. East Sussex Highways currently provide 2 standard grass cuts for each town and parish. Those that have 6 grass cuts have paid for this as an additional service.

Consequently, men commemorated at other locations around Ashdown Forest are not covered by this project. Our aim is to produce case studies in chronological order, and we expect to produce 116 in total. This first volume deals with the 46 men who died between the declaration of war on 4 August 1914 and 31 December 1916. We hope you will find these case studies interesting and thought-provoking.

How- ever, carbon footprints are not the focus for this year’s Anvil. Instead we have decid- ed to look at “footprints” in a broader sense. The High Weald is a landscape that has been shaped by man – and creatures – over generations, so we have delved into the area’s history to explore some of the last- ing “footprints” made by previous generations. Some we value and are thankful for, while others are more of a conundrum. Dinosaurs were the first to tramp the sandstones which form the underlying geology of the area – and their footprints can still be seen where the rock has been exposed. Later, the Anglo-Saxons left perhaps the most significant footprint on the landscape – the small, irregu- lar-shaped fields, scattered settlements and drove routes.
