Cuckfield

Cuckfield Evening WI: met for the first time in 2019 by welcoming Lesley Baker, Sussex’s own Woman Tree Surgeon. Lesley was delightful and witty in explaining how she came to be a tree surgeon and some of the many stories she has encountered over the years. Most importantly Lesley shared with the group the dangers of hiring someone unqualified or uninsured and explained what we should be looking out for. We were all particularly impressed with the kit that she has to use, including a 2 tonne chain saw called Mary!

Cuckfield Museum: reopens on Feb 16th after its winter break with a new exhibition ‘Haywards Heath: Cuckfield’s Noisy Neighbour’. We look at how a deserted heath was transformed into a thriving market town by the coming of the railway in 1841. We have diverse objects on show including one of the glass ‘bricks’ from the beautiful curved Art Deco window in the former bus station – a place where you went up an elegant staircase to have tea while you waited for the bus. We also have part of the workings from the old Asylum clock – the face is still there in the clock tower. The clock governed the life of this community where inmates were encouraged to work out of doors on the Asylum Farm, an enlightened approach for Victorian times. Exhibition runs till May. Opening hours: Wed, Thurs, Fri 10-12.30pm and Sat 10-3pm. More information from www.cuckfieldmuseum.org’
