As a Chichester High School girl who lived in Yapton, I used to change from the 65 bus at Barnham and catch the Chichester train in the morning, and vice versa in the afternoon.

I have fond memories of Walberton and the wonderful family that I believed I would be marrying into, but sometimes life doesn't work out as you plan. I was to be married in this church. I still miss them and their lovely village. My heart is still with them.

Our family moved from Bognor to Yapton in 1951 just before my 10th birthday.

Haywards Heath - A History & Celebration
TODAY IT IS still possible to see some vestiges of buildings that were known to those who lived through the English Civil War almost 400 years ago; one example is Pennies, a half-timbered house thought to have been built in 1606 and mentioned on a map of 1638, and currently incorporated within Dinnages garage in Sussex/ Wivelsfield Road.
