Memories of Ticehurst, from east
|
Taken From The Spot I Grew Up:
It took me a while to recognise the angle of this photo as from almost exactly the position my parents house was built on! Where the road ahead divides, another road to the left was later added, leading to my father's fruit farm which I grew up working on. The view in the photo is unhindered by the present housing developments of St Mary's Close and St Mary's Lane, as well as this year's (2007) new development on the old council yard. The piece of land in front of the camera is where Marlpit Gardens now stands. Posted: 23/12/2007 21:24 by Anne Lynch |

Wonderful Memories. New Added 2 days ago
I had the pleasure of working in Ticehurst, for a couple of years, back in the seventies. They were wonderful days for me. I shall never forget some of the village 'characters' such as Tom the Baker, Wally Palmer and Doctor Childs...wonder whatever happened to them? Take care of this precious village...I for one just love it. Posted: 07/01/2009 06:53 by Sue Fischer |

 Ticehurst, Singehurst 1925 (ref: 77001) |
Year: 1974
Singehurst Pond
Singehurst pond was the place for both girls and boys to go fishing with their bags of dampened bread and makeshift fishing rods. Throughout the season we caught loads and then returned our catch at the end of an outing, sometimes staying out all day. It was an excuse to meet up with friends and other village children with the same idea. This was memorable, but more so were the occasional winters when the water froze over to several inches thick, and all the village children (and some adults) made their way there to slide on the ice. My friend, Julia, and I did whenever we could. The ice creaked continuously and ominously, but we were ever ready to drop to our knees and crawl to safer places. Skating with only our shoes was one of the few unusual and fun winter memories, along with sliding down the nearby steep field on a straw-stuffed plastic bag! Posted: 23/12/2007 21:10 by Anne Lynch |

Ticehurst
My name is David Effer and we lived in Ticehurst from 1954 to 1968 when we left for Australia. We lived in Springfields and I had 4 brothers and two sisters. My father worked at Ticehurst House as a chef. Mum and dad have passed on now and one sister lives in Sicily. Last edited: 25/04/2007 11:29 by David Effer |

Childhood Memories
This view brings back many childhood memories, I was born in the cottage on the right hand edge of the picture, in 1947, growing up on the farm there, and have lived within three miles of the area for the majority of my life. Last edited: 20/10/2006 17:35 by Colin Boylett |
