Hailsham, St Mary's Church 1900

More about this scene

One of the earliest references to the church in Hailsham is in 1229, some thirty years before Henry II granted the already existing town a market charter. However, the town was served originally by a chapel-of-ease from Hellingly parish, which may explain why Hailsham's church is built behind the High Street rather than within it. This view, from the south east near Vicarage Road, shows a heavily Victorianised medieval church; it further suffered in 1943 when a bomb blast destroyed all its stained glass.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Fond memories of my time spent with my friends at Oakland's riding school in the late 1960's and early 1970's. Does anyone have any photos of it at that time? Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Nikki x
