Fogden agreed, as long as Martin paid for the oysters. They then went to the King’s Head for a glass of brandy, followed by an eel pie supper at Martin’s house. Ipswich Journal, 11 December 1813, p 1 The London Oyster Season opens: Billingsgate Fishmarket, August 1835: ‘At an early hour a scene of unusual bustle and confusion was apparent. Not less than 5,000 persons were in waiting to be served with the ‘real natives’, while the streets in the vicinity were blocked up with every species of locomotive vehicle to convey the oysters to the various quarters of the metropolis. There were no less than fifty sail of vessels in front of Billingsgate laden with oysters, chiefly from the Kentish coast.

    A27 Western Manhood Community Workshop Friday 14th July 2017 Bracklesham Barn Cllr. Chris Charter welcomed those present and introduced Ash Pal the facilitator who had been provided by West Sussex County Council. The meeting was advised that representatives from Earnley Parish Council, Birdham Parish Council, East Wittering and Bracklesham Parish Council, West Itchenor Parish Council and West Wittering Parish Council had meet to discuss the Build a Better A27 and the bullet points listed below were the agreed principles from this meeting. Which your elected representatives considered the important issues for the communities of the Western Manhood Peninsula and the Parish Council’s wished to obtain the residents views on these principles. 1. Acceptable to the greatest number of people • The previous options would have damaged the area • Because it is a peninsula we need access to the A27 • 75% of the Districts visitor beds are on the Manhood Peninsula • Difference between users of the A27 and the residents • Consider holding a referendum on the end result – the meeting thought a majority of 60% would be fair • Widest possible consensus you might end up with a fudge • Thriving tourist economy – need to get people on/off the peninsula • Horticultural/agricultural industry • The Peninsula provides major economic benefits for the whole District • Must not sacrifice the interests of the peninsula for the trunk road • 46% of the users of the A27 are through traffic • Never going to find a solution that suits everyone • Re use of the Crossrail machinery • The solution must have a material improvement • Local Plan review is currently taking place 10,000+ new homes will feed onto the A27 2.

It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 5.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll- back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.

  • Birdham, Itchenor, Chichester, Church Norton and Selsey
    Holiday with a religious connection. West Sussex Day 7 – Birdham, Itchenor, Chichester, Church Norton and Selsey. Martin encounters the extraordinary ‘Macrocarpa’ tree in Birdham churchyard. BIRDHAM Friday 15th April 2016 was our last full day in West Sussex – it turned out to be very, very wet and not a day for long trips! However there were several locations of interest within 30 mins of Earnley, especially parish churches. The first church we explored was St James’, Birdham. The most striking feature outside the church was the Macrocarpa tree – it had the appearance of an ancient ash with a contorted knotted trunk. ‘Hesperocyparis macrocarpa’, commonly known as Monterey cypress, is a species of cypress native to the Central Coast of California - however the precise species is disputed and it may be an example of Italian Cypress (C. sempervirens). It was a nice surprise to find a variant on the ancient ash trees found in most old churchyards! The Macrocarpa tree is located in a very pretty churchyard at Birdham, featuring a bench with trellis arch. The parish church of St James, Birdham is situated on the Manhood Peninsula in Sussex. The area is a suburban extension of the city of Chichester, popular as a place to live and visit from its nearness to the city, Chichester Harbour and marina. The church was heavily restored in the nineteenth century, the then existing chancel being entirely replaced and the nave windows renewed. The sixteenth-century tower remains. The church has a Grade 1 listing. The gated porch at Birdham. East window, St James’, Birdham.
