West Sussex memories
My parents managed the Glanfield for Ind Coope & Allsop in the late 1940's and early 1950's and I went to a prep school called Aston House (long gone)

The pub in the background is the Ship Inn. In the late 60s/early 70s I used to go to an excellent folk club in a room above the pub.

I had to leave this school due to my father's death and missed it terribly. ALL my closest friends were now too far away to see. Because it was a boarding school, it was like being taken away from my family. My most enjoyable young years were had here.

The Old Post Office, Turners Hill Road
I lived in the old post office for approx. 18 years but my family lived there for about 10 years longer. When my parents bought the property they spent a lot of time and effort making it into a family home, whilst trying to keep as much of the traditional persona of the house.
I have a lot of happy memories... [more]

I went to Crawley Down school for a few years in the mid sixties and when I went back recently to have a look I found the Parish Church and school (now a private house and so much smaller than I remember it as being) - and I walked down the path from the church to the road.

I moved to Crawley Down in 1959 and for four years I lived in the police house in Hophurst Road with my Mum, Dad and sister Denise, Dad being the village policeman.

Haywards Heath - A History & Celebration
The aftermath of the recession left businesses striving to become more efficient. It was not just the service industries and manufacturing industries that had to transform themselves, but the local agricultural scene also needed to change. The main casualty in Haywards Heath was the closure of the livestock market, which had at one point in its existence been the twelfth largest livestock market in the country. Times certainly had changed.... [more]
