More about this scene

Looking along George Street from Market Square, the timber-framed building and Ellis's were replaced in 1910 in Jacobean style by Market Chambers and a bank. This view captures the flavour of old Hailsham, nicknamed The String Town for its Victorian industries of sack, rope and twine manufacture.

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
