East Grinstead ~ High Street Tour

East Grinstead High Street contains one of the longest continuous runs of 14th-century timber-framed buildings in England. Other notable buildings in the town include Sackville College, the sandstone almshouse built in 1609 where the Christmas carol Good King Wenceslas was written by John Mason Neale. The college has sweeping views towards Ashdown Forest. The adjacent St Swithun's Church, stands on the highest ground in the town and was rebuilt in the eighteenth century (the tower dating from 1789) to a perpendicular design by James Wyatt; its imposing building dominates the surrounding countryside for many miles around. In the churchyard are commemorated the East Grinstead Martyrs; and in the south-east corner is the grave of John Mason Neale. The Greenwich Meridian runs through the grounds of the historic 1769 East Court mansion, home of the Town Council, giving the visitor an opportunity to stand with a foot in both the east and west. The mansion stands in a parkland setting. In 1968 the East Grinstead Society was founded as an independent body both to protect the historically important buildings of East Grinstead (and its environs) and to improve the amenities for future generations.
On the outskirts of the town is Standen, a country house belonging to the National Trust, containing one of the best collections of arts and crafts movement furnishings and fabrics. Off the A264 to Tunbridge Wells, there is a 1792 historic house called Hammerwood Park (the first work of the future architect of the United States Capitol) which is open to the public twice a week in summer. East Grinstead House is the headquarters of the (UK and Ireland) Caravan Club.
Local attractions include Ashdown Forest (where the Winnie-the-Pooh stories are set) and the Bluebell Railway, a preserved heritage line with steam locomotives. The town is also the site of Queen Victoria Hospital, where famed plastic surgeon Archibald McIndoe treated burns victims of World War II and formed the Guinea Pig Club. A statue of Sir Archibald McIndoe caring for an injured airman was erected in June 2014 outside Sackville College and was unveiled by HRH The Princess Anne, the Princess Royal. The town is well located to visit Chartwell the country home of Sir Winston Churchill, Hever Castle home of Henry VIII's second wife Anne Boleyn, and Penshurst Place home of the Sidney family. Kidbrooke Park (today Michael Hall School), a home of the Hambro family, was restored by the noted Sussex architect and antiquarian, Walter Godfrey, as was Plawhatch Hall.
During the Second World War, the town became a secondary target for German bombers which failed to make their primary target elsewhere. On the afternoon of Friday 9 July 1943, a Luftwaffe bomber became separated from its squadron, followed the main railway line and circled the town twice, then jettisoned seven bombs. Two bombs, one with a delayed-action fuse, fell on the Whitehall Theatre, a cinema on the London Road, where 184 people at the matinée show were watching a Hopalong Cassidy film before the main feature. A total of 108 people were killed in the raid, including children in the cinema, many of whom were evacuees; and some twenty Canadian servicemen stationed locally, who were either in the cinema when it was hit, or arrived minutes later to help with rescuing survivors. This was the largest loss of life of any single air raid in Sussex.
The Church of England has four places of worship in the town. St Swithun's Church was founded in the 11th century. Architect James Wyatt rebuilt it in local stone in 1789 after it became derelict and collapsed. Near the entrance to the church, three stones mark the supposed ashes of Anne Tree, Thomas Dunngate and John Forman who were burned as martyrs on 18 July 1556 because they would not renounce the Protestant faith
The inscription which runs across the three stones reads thus:
“Beneath these stones are interred (as is believed) the ashes of Thomas Dunngate, Anne Tree, and John Forman, who were burned to death in High St, East Grinstead, in 1556 for adherence to the Reformed Faith. FIDELES USQUE AD MORTEM”.

East Grinstead is a town and civil parish in the northeastern corner of Mid Sussex district of West Sussex in England near the East Sussex, Surrey, and Kent borders. East Grinstead lies 27 miles (43 km) south of London, 21 miles (34 km) north northeast of Brighton, and 38 miles (61 km) east northeast of the county town of Chichester.

Nearby towns include Crawley and Horley to the west, Tunbridge Wells to the east and Redhill and Reigate to the northwest. The town is contiguous with the village of Felbridge to the northwest. Until 1974 East Grinstead was the centre for local government - East Grinstead Urban District Council - and was located in the county of East Sussex. East Grinstead, along with Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill, as part of the former Cuckfield Rural District Council, came together as Mid-Sussex; moving to the jurisdiction of West Sussex County Council. The town has many historic buildings and is located on the Greenwich Meridian. It is located in the Weald and Ashdown Forest lies to the south-east of the town.

Sackville College is a Jacobean almshouse in town of East Grinstead, West Sussex, England. It was founded in 1609 with money left by Robert Sackville, 2nd Earl of Dorset. Throughout its history it has provided sheltered accommodation for the elderly. The mansion stands in a parkland setting. In 1968 the East Grinstead Society was founded as an independent body both to protect the historically important buildings of East Grinstead (and its environs) and to improve the amenities for future generations.

East Grinstead has been a railway terminus since 1967, after the line from Three Bridges, to Royal Tunbridge Wells was closed under the Beeching Axe, a rationalisation of British Railways' branch lines based on a report by Dr Richard Beeching, a resident of the town at that time.

#97 Wanderings Around West Sussex

It’s August Bank Holiday Monday in the UK which finds my buddy Al and I doing a little Road Trip in his Camper Van around the beautiful County of West Sussex. We first visit The National Trust Property and Grade 1 Listed Building of Standen House near East Grinstead before driving across the ancient Ashdown Forest. Our final destination is the Village of West Hoathly where we visit the Medieval St Margaret’s Church, The Cat’s Inn Pub for a quick drink and a then a welcome return to The Priest House, a 15th Century Wealden Hall House owned and managed by Sussex Past where I conducted a paranormal investigation with my ‘Spiral Paranormal’ Team back in 2011.

Treasures in Trust

Well, don't times change. And here's proof that it's even the case for the National Trust which, may preserve its properties for ever, for everyone, but has seen a significant shift in the way people view it. Now, it is the UK's largest membership organisation, but back in its centenary year of 1996 it was still somewhat in a transition phase - see for yourself. Includes footage of Patrick Gwynne before Homewood in Surrey opened, the then recently-bought atomic-weapons-research station of Orford Ness in Suffolk.

Cragside House, World's first Hydroelectric Home.

I hope you enjoy this brief visit, some information relating to the estate is below.

Described in 1880 as 'a palace of the modern magician', Cragside House, Gardens and Woodland is a truly unique visitor attraction in the heart of Northumberland. Situated near Rothbury, it was the family home of Lord Armstrong, Victorian inventor and industrialist. Cragside was the first building in the world to be lit by hydroelectricity and a walk around the National Trust property reveals a wealth of ingenious gadgetry including fire alarm buttons, telephones, a passenger lift and a Turkish bath suite.

As if that wasn't enough, the grounds of the Cragside Estate offer up a host of activities that will keep you and your family busy and fit. There's a play area, a rhododendron maze, a waterfall and the Trim Trail, where the whole family can test their agility. The estate has more than 30 miles of footpaths and lakeside walks. If it is raining, head inside to the Power House which has interactive models which children can use to generate their own electricity. There is also a children's trail in the house. Cragside is home to one of Europe's largest rock gardens sloping down the valley to the Debdon Burn. The Iron Bridge, one of the oldest of its type in the UK, crosses the burn.

Armstrong was a landscape genius and constructed five lakes and planted over seven million trees and shrubs. Cragside has one of Europe's largest Rock Gardens.
The estate can be explored either on foot or by car and look out for the increasingly rare red squirrel that has made the gardens of Cragside its home. The revolutionary home of Lord Armstrong, Victorian inventor and landscape genius, was a wonder of its age. Built on a rocky crag high above Debdon Burn, the house was the first in the world to be lit by hydro-electricity. Cragside is a garden of breathtaking drama, whatever the season.

Today this magnificent estate can be explored on foot or by car and provides one of the last shelters for the endangered red squirrel. Children will love the tall trees, tumbling streams, adventure play area and labyrinth. You can drive through the estate stopping at various places to either explore or have a picnic, but of course no BBQ's are allowed.

EDWIN LUTYENS COUNTRY HOUSES:

EDWIN LUTYENS COUNTRY HOUSES:
GAVIN STAMP Book Number: 75128 Product format: Paperback

No architect ever had a closer relationship with a magazine, and the match between Edwin Lutyens (1869-1944) and Country Life was one made in architectural heaven. Lutyens' celebrated collaborator Gertrude Jekyll introduced him to the magazine's then editor, Edward Hudson, in 1889. Hudson admired Lutyens and his work without reservation, and thereafter did all he possibly could to promote him, as well as commissioning him to design the new Country Life offices in Covent Garden in 1904 and a further three country houses. The magazine continued to publish articles with extensive photography about virtually all his buildings shortly after their completion, just as the architect intended, creating a visual archive of his work which is without parallel. It is this which is the source for this outstanding selection, but there is so much more than just the magnificent photos to enjoy here. An extensive and masterly introductory essay by the esteemed architectural historian Gavin Stamp, plus his commentary on the 22 featured buildings, each representative of phases of Lutyens' career, is an absolute pleasure to read. There are superb examples of his Surrey-vernacular style with its gables, timber and sweeping planes of tiled roof, such as Fulbrook House, early Arts and Crafts houses such as Goddards and Little Thakeham, his carefully composed Classical houses like Heathcote and his grandest country house of all, Middleton Park in Oxfordshire. This grand pictorial odyssey concludes with the jewel in the Lutyens crown, the magnificent Viceroy's House in New Delhi, completed in 1931 and undoubtedly one of the world's greatest buildings. With 200 superbly reproduced b/w photos, over half of them full- or double-page of interiors and exteriors. 192pp, 10×12, 2012 softback.
