No Photos of Stanmer Park? Shame!
I remember walking through this tiny quiet village with my family. I was a small child then. We also used to picnic and play family cricket in the Park. I remember lovely wooded areas as well as open parkland. Does anyone else remember this place as parkland open for the public? ...And is it still?
East Sussex memories
How Has Patcham Changed?
I was born in Wilmington Way Patcham in 1938. I remember it to be high up on the South Downs.
Has anyone posted up to date pictures of Patcham on the net, please. I left in about 1942, and would like to know what it looks like now.

Resident since 1960. Seeking original photograph of the house.
Brighton Teacher Training College.
The house on the far right of the terrace was no 9 which together with no 8 formed the premises of Brighton Teacher Training College, which I attended in 1956-58. The road on the left hand side of the picture (just visible) is Paston Place. This eastern area of Brighton is known as Kemp Town.
Teacher Training College
The building in the corner was Brighton Teacher Training College. The building at right angles in the distance was a hotel.
My mother Florence Starkey was studying in the Teacher Training College top floor and looked out of the window across the angle into the side window of the curved bay hotel window to see a woman hovering strangely in the shadow of the back of the room. Their eyes met.
She looked away and as she did so the woman threw herself from the window and was impaled on the area railings below, directly next to the College's entrance. All the students were confined to the College for hours whilst the 6 foot section of railing was sawn out. One can still see only the top rail was crudely welded back. This may also explain why the windows are blocked.
One small anonymous tragedy.
Brighton Jazz Club
Used to visit the Brighton Jazz Club - at the Aquarium, at about the time this photograph was taken
Days Out by The Seaside
