  • Haywards Heath Through Time

    af Colin Manton ...
    Serier serie Through Time
    Haywards Heath is a remarkable place with an intriguing history. Misguidedly characterised as 'large and quite amorphous', detailed inspection actually reveals a dynamic settlement that spread like a patchwork quilt in a distinctive pattern of development. It was indisputably the railway, a Victorian marvel cut through bare heathland in 1841 and bringing with it the county asylum and one of the ... Læs mere

  • Harrow Through Time

    af Don Walter ...

    af Bob Cairns ...
    Serier serie Through Time
    The town of Lewes in the South Downs has a long and fascinating history. From its Saxon origins it grew into a medieval walled town dominated by its spectacular Norman castle.

  • Eastbourne Through Time

    af Kevin Gordon ...
    Serier serie Through Time
    Eastbourne is situated at the eastern end of the South Downs alongside the famous Beachey Head cliff. Although Eastbourne has some industrial trading estates, it is essentially a seaside resort and derives its main income from tourism. It is a genteel resort with none of the glitz, glamour and 'kiss-me-quickness' of other seaside towns; even today there are no shops or amusement arcades along the ... Læs mere
