As you know all too well, we at Lindfield Life are all about local people. On page 24 Claire Cooper meets a relatively recent convert to these parts, Emily Lomax. She didn’t even know Lindfield existed before she bought a wedding dress from Mathilda Rose on the High Street! Page 14 is an article about Dennis and Judy Batchelor after they have recently taken down their last big Christmas lights display in Meadow Lane. Denmans Lane Dash is the Boxing Day event started by Ray Gower back in 2015. This year’s event was a record turnout and, with the help of Paula Clark on camera, we’ve tried to capture the spirit of the day on page 6. Another regular contributor is resident Jennie Adams who this month shares her thoughts on ‘the best job in the world’: a teacher, on page 28. Caroline Young serves up winter soup on page 42. And, on page 40, Heather Martin tells us what to do in the garden in February. I’m pleased to say we have a number of Book Reviews for you to take a look at.

  • Pond Island Discs Lindfield's Christmas Past Festive Church
    Local village talk, by the village Dec. 2019 Issue #131 Inc. Scaynes Hill & Walstead Free Lindfield’s Christmas past page 20 Pond Island Discs page 56 Festive church services page 37 LL131 Dec mag.indd 1 19/11/2019 14:24 2 Find, follow and share us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram www.lindfieldlife.co.uk LL131 Dec mag.indd 2 19/11/2019 14:24 EDITORIAL By David Tingley, Editor In my head, December is always ‘the’ busy month of the year, but it’s easy to forget just what a heavy, community-centred time November is here in Lindfield. We pay some homage to that in this issue. Page 28 reminds us of the great work that Lindfield Bonfire Society does in the village. Putting on an event of that scale and quality is no mean feat and I’m sure you’d join me thanking all those who made it happen on 5th November. Similarly, I wanted to acknowledge the sterling effort that many residents made to come out on Remembrance Sunday to both the church and the parade down the High Street – captured on page 48. This month being the Christmas issue means we are certainly not short of things to say... As is tradition, the four village churches (including St Augustine’s, as Scaynes Hill is part of Lindfield Rural Parish - in case you didn’t know!) have taken the centre spread to ensure readers know where and when Christmas services take place – turn to page 37. There’s plenty of other Christmas content too.

    Towers News 2011 - 2012 The Towers Convent School, Henfield Road, Upper Beeding, West Sussex, BN44 3TF. Tel 01903 812185 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.towers.w-sussex.sch.uk Welcome Welcome to this edition of ‘Towers News’ which covers most events from Christmas half-term 2011 to Christmas half-term 2012. When I first took over the publication in 2003 it was a much smaller affair with fewer photographs but now ‘like Topsy’ it has grown and this, my last ‘Towers News’, is more like the size of my MA thesis except I do hope that it is far more interesting to read! I would like to thank everyone who has contributed articles and photographs with particular thanks to Jason Relf who has used his considerable IT skills to assemble the finished booklet and to Sister Mary Andrew for her invaluable proof-reading ability. Carole Baker MA Headmistress Celebrating the Harvest The theme of the Junior School Harvest festival in 2011 was ‘Colours’. The Nursery children made a beautiful rainbow altar frontal and also presented a very different rendition of ‘somewhere over the rainbow’, whilst modelling club produced some wonderful sunflowers for the chapel windowsills. Harvest colours were celebrated through songs including a few old favourites ‘Cauliflowers fluffy and cabbages green’ and ‘Colours of Day’. The choir and its various sub-sections sang a beautiful and most appropriate harvest hymn entitled ‘Give Thanks’. The remainder of the service contained some lovely elements: poems written by Year 6; an amusing enactment of ‘The Enormous Turnip’ by Reception and Year 1; a percussion piece called ‘Chinese Lanterns’ built on a pentatonic scale composed and performed by Year 4; Joseph and his multi-coloured dream-coat by Year 3; Year 4’s ‘Food Colours’ song which fitted in wonderfully with the theme and a beautifully choreographed angel fish dance presented by Year 2.
