Green Hedges, Westmeston
A Memory of Ditchling.
I too was born at the Green Hedges nursing home during the war, though obviously I have no memories of it and have never returned. My father was in the army at the time and I have photos of him and my mother holding me in their arms outside the home. I have never been back but it is nice to learn that the building still exists. I am quite proud to be able to claim a Sussex place of birth as mine rather than the much more common London one that I would otherwise have had. My brother was also born at the home, but not till four years later so it was still in maternity use in 1945.

I now live in Australia, but I have been back some years ago to have a look at the place of my early years. It certainly brings back memories.
