  • Bluebell Railway Education Department Along the Line
    BLUEBELL RAILWAY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT ALONG THE LINE FOR SCHOOLS SHEFFIELD PARK STATION 1. Approaching the station buildings along the drive, the picnic area can be seen to the right, adjacent to the River Ouse, where lunch can be taken. The river is little more than a stream today but it was once navigable from the sea at Newhaven to just short of Balcombe Viaduct – on the London to Brighton main line between Haywards Heath and Balcombe. The 11 million bricks used to construct the viaduct were transported up river from Lewes by barge. 2. The station is built in the Queen Anne country architectural style, a style used at all stations on the line and is painted in the colours of the line's initial operators, the London Brighton and South Coast Railway. The year in which the line opened – 1892 -can be found in the decorative plasterwork on the front of the station building. Passengers enter the station via the booking hall and purchase their old fashioned Edmondson cardboard tickets from the booking office. The station was originally lit by oil lamps but is now lit by a mix of evocative gas lighting and more modern electric lights. It sits astride the Greenwich Meridian, the exact (Photo: Bluebell Archives) location being marked by a plaque at the north end of platform 1. 3. The Railway houses and maintains its fleet of mainly steam locomotives at the station - currently it has some thirty engines in stock although only ten or so are in service at any given time – they need a boiler inspection and a new certificate every ten years.

  • Family History #3
    HOP PICKING IN OUR FAMILY HISTORY HOP PICKING LIFE It is impossible for us to really understand the interlude that hop picking had in the life of Londoners. It wasn’t an easy life and as the prices for hops fell in the 1950’s, the pay was low. But, good or bad, thousands regularly left their homes in London for the Kent hop fields. A holiday? A change of scenery? A chance to earn a few extra pennies? The opportunity for the children to enjoy fresh air and green grass? The reasons are as many and varied as the people who went. HOPPER HUT Accommodation in the hopper huts was basic even for the East Enders. I have no doubt if they were asked they would have replied that, “A change is as good as a ‘oliday!” The first job for the transplanted Londoners was to fill large sacking with straw for mattresses. Toilets were outside and bathing was of the tin tub variety {this may not have been so different from what they left behind) Most huts were made out of corrugated iron which meant cold nights and hot days. Mum said that some women took a few “specials” with them to make it more like home. A little bit of wallpaper, left over curtain material provided them with the illusion of home comforts. THE HOPPER SPECIAL For the thousands of East Enders who made the annual pilgrimage the choices of how to get there was either in a special train or open backed army trucks. The necessities of life needed for the Kent hop fields were packed into old prams and boxes or stuffed into the back of trucks with a child sitting on each as a mark of ownership.

  • NDP Steering Minutes 060317
    Minutes GOUDHURST PARISH NEIGHBOURHOOD DEVELOPMENT PLAN GROUP Steering Committee (SC) Meeting # 06 Monday March 6, 2017 7.45 pm Present: Anthony Harris(AH), John Leavens(JL), Barbara Stafford (BS), Victoria Aldwinkle (VA), Colin Willis (CW), Craig Broom (CB), Richard Hillier (RH), Susan Newsam (SN), Alan Foster (AF), Jo Hinde (JH) Victoria Aldwinkle (VA), Peter Rolington (PR). 1. Apologies Ed Bates (EB), Linda Hall (LH), Jim Boot (JB), John Leavens (JL), Peter Rollington (PR) 2. A Developer’s View Dave Hugget (DH) (Persimon Homes) provided the group with a view of Goudhurst from the perspective of a major housebuilder. Dave noted that NDP’s were becoming more commonplace and developers were becoming more actively involved in the consultation phase of the NDP process and challenging where necessary. NDPs sit below local and national plans and NDP alignment with wider plans is the principal area of challenge. Another area is EU directives for example ecology, SSI’s etc. TWBC have historically seen Tunbridge Wells and Paddock Wood taking the majority of development with previous plans allocating only 360 new houses across all villages. Although numbers were now larger DH was of the view that the overall proportions would not dramatically change. DH felt that the geography, surroundings etc. of Goudhurst and TWBC’s historic view of the village would not make it a viable centre for development (Cranbrook is our local Rural Centre) and that, as a consequence, the major housebuilders were unlikely to target Goudhurst for development. DH emphasised that the NDP should deliver Positive Planning and understanding how development could be assessed (criteria) and supported - for example in the allocation of sites.

  • 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.

  • Bolney to Lindfield – 8½ Miles
    Bolney to Lindfield – 8½ miles Cross the new A23 by means of the underpass, go straight ahead at the cross path and proceed downhill through woodland. This path is narrow and in places growth has obscured a rut or small ditch on the left so care is needed. The path emerges on to Buncton Lane. Turn left along the lane. Ignore the first footpath sign to the right at ‘Pickwell’ and take the next path on the right, TQ273233. Follow signs uphill to the north-east making for the distant house visible across two fields. A stile and a gate lead out to Bishopton Lane by the house, TQ277237. Cross at the stile opposite and enter Black Forest. Turn left (north) at the signposted 3 way footpath junction. Now proceed downhill into Long Wood and cross the stile into Broxmead Lane and turn right. After about 200 yards the lane turns sharp left, at this point take the footpath leading off to the right. Go down a short track and enter the vineyard through the gate. Cross the vineyard and go out of the next gate, turn right at the field boundary and follow the track to Deaks Lane, TQ288246. Turn left, past ‘Cuckfield Cattery’ and go right through a gate into a field opposite ‘The Wylies’. The route from here into Cuckfield follows the ‘High Weald Landscape Trail’. Continue down the slope to a bridge over a stream and ascend a track through woodland. Ignore a cross track. Follow signs along a chicken wire fence, then across the stile into the open with views opening up to the South Downs and the spire of Cuckfield Church ahead.
