East Ashling Grange

We lived at East Ashling Grange for the first 3 years of our marriage. My husband was in the Royal Sussex Regt. and was based at the Depot in Chichester. I am doing a family history for my children and would love a photo of the Grange. We have some of the garden with our firstborn in his pram but they are not interesting to other people I feel! We were married "off the strength" because we were too young for allowances or housing. Sir John & Lady Sinclair came to our rescue and rented us the old servants' quarters for very little money. Those were very happy days. Our eldest son was baptised at Funtington Church.
Now nearly 53 years later we have lived in Western Australia since 1971 and have a family of 4 chlidren, 10 grandchildren & two great grandchildren.

Dear Jennifer

I am the present owner of East Ashling Grange. My wife and I moved there with our three children almost four years ago.

Send me your email address and I'll dig out some photographs.

Kind regards

John Ashworth
