THE WALDEN LANDSCAPE IN THE EARLY SEVENTEENTH CENTERS AND ITS ANTECELENTS Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London by John Louis Mnkk Gulley 1960 ABSTRACT This study attempts to describe the historical geography of a confined region, the Weald, before 1650 on the basis of factual research; it is also a methodological experiment, since the results are organised in a consistently retrospective sequence. After defining the region and surveying its regional geography at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the antecedents and origins of various elements in the landscape-woodlands, parks, settlement and field patterns, industry and towns - are sought by retrospective enquiry. At two stages in this sequence the regional geography at a particular period (the early fourteenth century, 1086) is , outlined, so that the interconnections between the different elements in the region should not be forgotten.

See Principles on main webpage. Parkland, green meadows, woodland, views In Brief This short walk through the best of the rolling country near Ashdown Forest includes some of stretches already familiar with regular users of this site. But it finds other paths which are less known. ? In autumn there were no nettles or undergrowth worth a mention on this walk, but in high summer the undergrowth will be much denser, requiring ? sensible clothing. Boots are necessary in the wetter months, but about 70% of the walk is on surfaced drives, making walking shoes or trainers a viable alternative if the weather is fairly clement and the season dry. With hardly any main roads, your dog will be very welcome on this walk. The walk begins at Withyham , East Sussex, postcode TN7 4BD .. For more details, see at the end of this text ( Getting There ). In the Winnie-the-Pooh stories, the Five Hundred Acre Wood was close to Cotchford Farm, near Hartfield, which A.A. Milne and his family rented for the summer. But in the book it becomes just the “Hundred-Acre Wood” or simply “The Wood” and Christopher Robin and Pooh go there regularly because in the middle of the wood is Owl's house.

The walk can be divided into two shorter walks: Villages and Poohsticks (10½ or 9½ km=6½ or 5½ miles) is the twisty northern walk.

  • East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction
    eastsussex.gov.uk East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction The year was again dominated by efforts towards achieving The Keep, the new Historical Resource Centre, but the core work of the Record Office continued more busily than ever and there was much of which to be proud. In July 2008 we took in our ten-thousandth accession, something of a milestone in the office’s own history of almost 60 years. An application to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for £4.9million towards the costs of The Keep was submitted by the Record Office on behalf of the capital partners, East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and the University of Sussex, in September. This represented around 20% of the anticipated costs of the building, since the partners remain committed to find the remainder. In December we learned our fate: that we had been unsuccessful. Feedback from the HLF indicated that ours had been an exemplary application, and one which they would have liked to have supported but, in a year when the effect of diverting HLF money to the Olympics was being felt, it was thought necessary to give precedence to some very high-profile projects. We were, of course, disappointed, but determined not to be deterred, and the partners agreed to pursue ways forward within the existing funding. Because it would further hold up the project, adding to inflation costs, but give no guarantee of success, we decided not to re-apply to the HLF, and by the end of the financial year were beginning to look at options for a less expensive building.
