West Sussex memories

The Creasey family at Worth, West Sussex


My great-grandmother's family were farmers in Worth, and nearby Copthorne and Charlwood in the mid-nineteenth century.

Great-grandma was Eliza Creasey and she married great-grandad George Allen in the chapel at Copthorne in 1870. I have not yet been able to visit Worth but the modern maps make it hard to believe there may once have been farms here! [more]

the fox

My parents managed the Fox for most of the 1950' and '60's. My love of railways came from the Loco crew who drank there and gave me (unofficial) footplate rides!

Barmaid

I worked as a barmaid in the Fox when Three Bridges had the bad flood and the pub was flooded, it was an old fashioned pub in those days with a public bar and saloon bar with darts on a Friday night, good old fashioned fun.

The Fox

The Fox was demolished in the 1990s and  replaced by a modern pub a bit further back from the main road, now called The Snooty Fox I think.

Three Bridges/Pound Hill

I lived at Cornerstones which was built for me in 1963/4, this is on Milton Mount Avenue. Both my sisters went to the Convent and then Milton Mount College.
I used to fish in the lakes at Milton Mount with my Uncle in 1950/4.

Memorial Gardens/Recreation Ground

I am researching the history of the Memorial Gardens and wonder if anyone in Crawley has memories of when this was a recreation ground, and when exactly it bacame known as the Memorial Gardens - I think during the 1960s.
Thank you if you can help.

Tilgate Mansion Crawley West Sussex

This is the first time I have ever seen such a wonderful photo of Tilgate Mansion, other than bits of it in the backgound of faded family snaps. It means a lot to me because my father, Peter, spent part of his youth living there sometime in the late 1950s with his family (Tayman of the Crawley area) and when he... [more]
