CHICHESTER LOCAL

Win a family ticket to the Loxwood Joust Plus pavilion seats to watch a live joust! 3rd-4th and 10th-11th August The Loxwood Joust’s unrivalled programme of mediaeval revelry and mayhem guarantees a fun and educational day out for all the family on the 3rd, 4th, 10th and 11th August.

Experience the verve and vigour of a world where lives were harsh and hearts were passionate as you walk through the Living History Village and see the inhabitants go about their daily life. Then in the battlefield beyond, harken to the call of booming cannon fire and the clash of steel on steel as the mighty battle takes place in front of your eyes.

Watch the magnificent fully armoured jousting knights earn honour and valour with the pounding of horse’s hooves, as they present a fast-paced, all action jousting tournament that will always amaze and astound. And explore the Mediaeval Market Place where traders bring their wares to sell just like peddlers of old.

Treat yourself to a meal with The Queen of Loxwood at her sumptuous four course banquet and be entertained by court jesters, live music and riddlers as you dine. Then at the Mead Shack in the woods, sample the ‘Nectar of the Gods’ whilst the Mediaeval Baebes and Trobar De Morte entrance and soothe with magical voices, and the hypnotic belly dancers dance.

Meet the Faerie Goddess, at the Crescent Moon Temple as she brings you closer to the Loxwood nature spirits; and perhaps you will take part in a true pagan ceremony to renew your vows or have a full bespoke handfasting wedding.

In the den of the witches these creatures most foul will lure and beguile you with their spells and incantations. And nothing brings the grim affair of crime and punishment to life more than the gruesome and frightening apparition that is the Executioner dressed all in black.

Join the blacksmith to master the art of metalwork, undertake chain-mailing as you create your own

jewellery, or try your hand at copper bowl making, whilst younger ones punch their name or initials on to copper charms.

Then in the far corner of the Midsummers Meadow nestles the Children’s Kingdom; a festival within a festival, where the Mediaeval Groat is the currency. Here you will find all manner of exciting activities, including havea-go archery, pelt the peasant, face and wound painting, jester school and knight school. Both adults and children can learn some long sword moves at knight school, before they try their hand at hitting the life-size boar and stag as they test their bow skills against the exciting range of targets.

The Loxwood Joust is a festival like no other, as history comes to life each day from 10am to 6pm.

Advance tickets are available at their website www.loxwoodjoust.co.uk

News from Pagham Harbour & Medmerry nature reserves

By Roy Newnham, Visitor Experience Officer, RSPB Pagham Harbour

Corn Bunting (c) Andy Hay Walking around our Medmerry reserve on a warm sunny day in June I revel in the rich continuous outpouring of silvery warbles and trills cascading down from the skies far above me. This is the skylarks’ song and the quintessential sound of the summer countryside particularly where farmland is concerned. It can be hard to spot this little lark against the bright sky despite its ability to hang in the air on straight angular wings while it delivers its song for several minutes at a time. However, if you see one perched on a post you will discover a simple brown streaked bird which often raises a crest on its head when alarmed or excited.

You will almost certainly hear another distinctive voice, the often described ‘little bit of bread and no cheese’ song of the yellowhammer, repeated over and over from the tops of bushes lining the fields. The depiction portrays the songs’ pace and form of this colourful bunting, with a bright yellow head, yellow breast and brown streaky back.

Another farmland bird, the corn bunting, is unfortunately much less frequently heard or seen. However, we have a small population on our Medmerry reserve.

Look for them clinging onto fence lines singing with a series of notes likened to the jangling of keys. Like the skylark it is camouflaged a streaky brown but lacks any white edges to its tail.

By contrast the lapwing is a beautifully smart looking bird with a wispy crest. At first glance this pigeon-sized plover looks white underneath with black upperparts, but a closer look at its back and wings reveals an iridescent glossy sheen of green, blue and purple. This beautiful colouration gave it the alternative name of green plover, while another old name is ‘peewit’ in imitation of its display calls. Easily spooked it flaps in loops on broad rounded wings.

These and many other farmland birds have suffered dramatic declines. None more so than the turtle dove, whose numbers have dropped by a staggering 97%.

The cause is thought to be a lack of seed and grain during the breeding season, resulting in a much shorter breeding season and fewer nesting attempts.

Just 50 years ago, the cat-like purr of this dainty dove, with mottled chestnut and black upperparts, was a common sound across our countryside. Together with local farmers, we are working to reverse these trends by planting hedgerows and sowing bird friendly crops.

Meanwhile, on our Pagham Harbour reserve, Tern Island is a cacophony of noise as terns and gulls squabble like argumentative neighbours, protecting their nests and feeding their young. Agile swallows swoop low over fields and waterways with a cheerful chattering, using their long tails to steer with graceful swerves and rolls, catching insects on the wing as they go. But the real masters of the summer sky are far, far higher. Higher still than the skylark, resembling little black anchors, swifts hurtle through the air at break-neck speed, reminiscent of dog-fighting WWII pilots, screaming like banshees to one another.

These superb fliers only land to breed. From the time the fledglings take their very first flight, they will not touch down again until they make a nest. They do everything on the wing: eat, drink, preen, mate, they even sleep in flight!

Underpinning it all is the continuous buzz of bees and hoverflies busily working from one flower to another.

Dragonflies patrol their ponds with a clash of wings and a flash of colour, while their more delicate cousins the damselflies pair up daintily in flight. Grasshoppers and crickets chirrup from the sun-bleached grassland, adding to the natural rhythm of the season, as butterflies flutter by the hedgerows and across the fields.

This is my summer soundtrack.

For those of you interested in the fortunes of our nestcam ‘reality TV stars’ our tawny owl hatched all three eggs and the fluffy owlets have been delighting us with lovely images. They have grown rapidly and got curious about the world outside their box. Tawny owl chicks remain in the nest for 25 – 30 days before moving out onto nearby branches, an act called ‘branching’. However, they won’t actually fly until approximately 32 -37 days old and will still be dependant on their parents feeding them for a further three months.

The kestrel laid 5 eggs which is a very good number and will incubate for approximately 4 weeks while the two pairs of blue tits laid clutches of eight and nine eggs which are hatching at the time of writing. We now have a couple of new characters to join the cast. A pair of sparrows have been building their nest and will lay four or five eggs which both parents will incubate for up to two weeks.

Report wildlife sightings Residents and visitors of Chichester District are being encouraged to help provide vital information on local wildlife in the area by reporting sightings through a dedicated phone app and website.

Chichester District is home to a wide range of wildlife that lives across a variety of habitats including flowerrich meadows, ancient wooded areas, coastal sand dunes and shingle.

National data has shown that wildlife numbers are in decline. In order to understand where wildlife lives in Chichester District and how this changes over time, residents are being asked to report sightings of wildlife in their gardens, or out and about in the district.

It’s easy to report any sightings of wildlife by visiting www.brc.ac.uk/irecord, or by downloading the iRecord app on to a smartphone. Records entered into the iRecord website are freely available to the public, so they can be used locally, and nationally.

More information on using the website or app can be found by visiting www.brc.ac.uk/irecord/how-do-i Data submitted using iRecord is one of many sources of data used by Sussex Biodiversity Record Centre to provide biodiversity data and information services to organisations across Sussex, including Chichester District Council. For more information on accessing local biodiversity data, please visit www.sxbrc.org.uk.

Alison Stevens, Divisional Manager for Environmental Protection: “Using the iRecord app or website is really easy, and therefore we hope as many people as possible can get involved in helping to record any sightings of wildlife in the district.

“Whether you spot a hedgehog in your garden or a water vole whilst you’re out on a walk, recording the sighting will help us to understand the state of nature in our district. Protecting wildlife for future generations is extremely important to us, and any information gathered can be used to help us understand what steps we need to take to do this.”

CHICHESTER LOCAL Reader responses to ‘Court Closers’ in March 2019 edition Reader letter 1: Dear Editor, What a superb article by Veronica Cowan in your March issue. I worked at Chichester Magistrates’ Court as legal adviser and legal team manager for more than 24 years starting in 1988. When I started, the court house was still comparatively new – it was opened in 1977, and in 1994 an extension was opened. It was a lovely building in which to work and certainly “fit for purpose” in terms of dispensing justice. It is very sad to walk past it, as I frequently do now, and see it sitting there, neglected and unsold, with furniture still inside it! It is indeed appalling that so little money has been realised from the court buildings that have been shut since 2010. I now work part-time as a defence solicitor and am extremely disappointed, like your writer was, with levels of service and communication generally that I receive when dealing with the court administration. The same is equally true of the Crown Prosecution Service. So thank you, Veronica, for highlighting these things for readers of Sussex Local.

Yours, David, by email Reader letter 2: Dear Sir, I read the comment in the May edition from a “spokes-person” from HM Court and Tribunal Services re Court Closures but unfortunately I missed the March edition and do not know what was said under that heading. As a retired magistrate who sat at Chichester for 32 years I cannot agree with any of the comments made by that ‘spokes-person’.

The court at Chichester were neither unsuitable nor near another court. The magistrate court was purpose built and was designed by a serious magistrate.

Both courts were a few steps away from the bus and railway stations, and close to several car parks. It was almost opposite the police station where a new custody suite had just been opened.

I do not remember a public consultation but I do remember hundreds of objection to life closure, with sound reasons. The objections were ignored on the pretext of saving money. The result is that now everyone travelling to a court on the other side of the county magistrate, defendants, juries, court officials, lawyers and witnesses claim expenses.

A defendant relying on witnesses to prove innocence may find that their witnesses may be reluctant to travel and therefore justice will not be done.

Quotes from the response: “People will always have access to nearby alternatives” “Hastings magistrates and County Court is open” Nearby? Has the ‘spokes person’ ever tried to get to Hastings by public transport from a remote village in West Sussex?

And then there’s the math. £124 million rose from sale of court buildings. £130 million spent on maintenance (of what?)

The rest, which I make minus six million invested to improve access to justice? I rest my case! J. Barrat

During the Festival, an exciting range of events, performances and services will be held in the Cathedral and other iconic venues around the city centre.

They are 2 years old and have been at The Centre since September 2018 as their previous owner was moving to a flat and could not take them. These boys are very friendly and happy to be handled.

Massaman does have a head that is slightly tilted.

Our vet has looked into this, it does not worry him, and he will probably have it for life. We think it adds to his charm. He runs around and eats alongside his brother without any issues. We are hoping to find a home with owners who have had some experience

Bags of Support Award winning organisation ethically recycling 50 tonnes of textiles annually. By Lynn Smith The quantity of textiles sent to landfill in this country is phenomenal. According to the Bags of Support website, around 1.2 million tonnes of household textile waste goes to landfill each year; largely thanks to the rise of “throwaway” or fast fashion – where clothing is so cheap to buy, and fashions change so speedily that people simply throw perfectly serviceable items into the bin and buy more. Exacerbating a wide range of deleterious effects on the environment – including water pollution, toxic chemicals and textile waste. Karrie Mellor, founder of Bags of Support is passionate about recycling and reducing the quantity of textiles sent to landfill.

Karrie’s au pair, Kinga Bako, was sorting through the children’s clothes one day, when she asked what she should do with the clothes that Karrie’s son had outgrown. Karrie has three children; two girls and a boy, the girls clothes were passed down once outgrown, for another life with a younger owner, but there was no younger male sibling to receive Karrie’s son’s clothes. So, Karrie suggested the clothes be taken to a charity shop – a concept new to her au pair. Back home in Romania, Kinga volunteered at an orphanage and so she asked if she might take them with her on her next visit home.

Karrie agreed and began asking her friends to donate their children’s unwanted clothes too. At the same time Karrie became Chair of her children’s school PTA and was desperately trying to find new ways of raising funds for the school, after all there are only so many cakes you can ask people to bake or raffle tickets you can sell.

Frustrated by the amount of textile waste produced in the United Kingdom and the simultaneous need for clothing abroad, Karrie decided to set up her own clothes recycling point in the school, rather than through third party businesses, providing a better deal for the school and allowing Karrie to have the pick of the clothes for the orphanages.

Bags of Support was established in 2012 and is now a Green Award Winning organisation based in West Sussex, that ethically recycles around 50 tonnes of textiles annually, from 44 schools in West Sussex – and a couple in East Sussex and Kent. Karrie’s former au pair and friend, Kinga, uses her local knowledge and contacts to manage the project in Romania.

Karrie explains that Bags of Support operates as a business and that she has “recently set up a Not for Profit organisation that interlinks with some of the work Bags of Support achieves … We strive to get the

best price for all items that aren’t donated to Africa or Romania.”

Donating to Bags of Support is a simple process donations are collected from the school on a specified day, usually once a term and the school is paid by the kilo, currently 50p, and can earn on average £150 per term, which could raise £450 for the PTA over a year. Once collected, items are sorted according to how they can be best used.

Initially clothes are sorted according to requests from those orphanages – located in Romania, Hungary, Haiti and Uganda supported by the organisation. Requests that can be quite specific.

For instance, underwear is very valuable to Africa and is very easy to send over as it doesn’t weigh a great deal, and sending unwanted underwear can have a greater impact than simply providing clothing. Karrie explains that for a young girl in Africa, wearing a bra can be a protection, a deterrent against molestation as she collects water or firewood or on her way to school. Without this simple garment she can be exposed and vulnerable.

Once sorted for the orphanages’ needs, the remaining textiles are recycled in the most environmentally way possible.

The organisation asks that all donated textiles must be reuseable. However, it receives a wide range of donated items, some of which may not be reuseable.

Even so, Karrie says that if the organisation were to refuse to accept poorer quality clothes then these items would probably end up in landfill, and she wants people to realise the importance of not automatically sending unwanted items to landfill. Donated clothes that are not reuseable can be sold onto clothes recycling companies, generally at a loss as they pay less than Bags of Support will have paid the school in the first place. But Bags of Support guarantees that these items will still not end up in landfill, rather they will be recycled into other uses – such as being shredded for loft insulation.

At the other end of the scale, higher value items may be sold on-line - as Karrie says a designer item is of no greater use in an orphanage than a serviceable item from the high street. But the funds raised from selling that high-end item online can help support the donations side of the operation.

The organisation also supports Hope House School in Haiti and The Nkuringo Foundation Nursery and Primary School in Uganda. Not only by donating clothes – including recycled school uniforms – but by sponsoring the education of children who would not otherwise have the chance to go to school and who, thanks to Bags of Support, can receive life changing education.

30 Charity Profile Karrie describes Nkuringo as “a wonderful community,” and is keen to say that, “we only do what we’re asked to do in Nkuringo,” and that the community gives back so much.

On a recent visit to Nkuringo, Karrie was accompanied by one of her daughters, who said that visiting the community made her realise that, “we really don’t need all of the material things, screens and smart phones, to be happy … in Nkuringo no-one has anything but they are a million times happier.”

Karrie Mellor says that children are very responsive to “clothing miles” and when she talks to children in schools, they say they would much rather prefer to pass on their unwanted clothes to another child in their school or on their street, which they feel is better for the environment than someone buying new clothes. Karrie agrees with her young supporters that the ideal solution to the problem of clothing pollution

Karrie’s daughter Zara with Katherine from Nkuringo school

is to recycle, by passing unwanted clothes onto someone else locally who will wear the clothes, and so reduce the amount of new clothes bought.

But, even in this day and age, there can be a stigma against accepting “hand me downs,” or buying from Charity shops, so the next best thing is for the clothes to be donated to an organisation like Bags of Support, who will ensure that the clothes can have a second life with someone who desperately needs clothing abroad.

Bags of Support is holding a Kilo Sale at the Care, Share and Repair Fair in Horsham Market on Saturday 6th July, when people will get the chance to purchase clothes not per item but by the kilo, for a small amount of money.

Legal Lucy Make sure your pets are cared for We all love our furry friends and there are an estimated 51 million pets in the UK, but only a small proportion of them are mentioned in their owner’s Will.

In England and Wales, pets are considered to be the property of their owners and therefore can be left to someone in a Will.

The RSPCA estimate that there are 12 million petowning households in the UK, with 26 percent of us owning a dog and 18 percent a cat.

If you haven’t made specific mention of your pet in your Will, then he or she will pass to the person receiving your personal possessions. This could mean that your pet ends up with someone who doesn’t want them or who is unable to care for them.

Legal 33 Do think about who you want to care for your pet at the same time that you make your Will.

Talk to the person and make sure that they are happy to take on your much loved pet. Make sure that your wishes are clearly communicated in your Will and to your friends and family. You can leave money to cover vets bills and other expenses.

What You Eat Affects How You Think

By Heather Smith, Personal Trainer They might feel like two separate parts of our body, but our gut and brain are literally directly linked together.

It’s why we get butterflies in our tummy when we’re looking forward to (or dreading!) something; it’s why we eat more when we’re stressed and how eating foods we’re intolerant to can lead to behavioural issues.

In fact, the gut is known as the second brain. It is a giant ecosystem of millions of tiny microbes (known as the microbiome) which helps digest your food, regulate your hormones, excrete toxins and produce vitamins. A huge percentage of your immune system is within your gut too. In short, your gut is an important thing to look after – it is probably the gateway to health.

By putting the right food into our tummies, our brain is able to work at its best. We’ll think faster which makes us feel more clever and able to make the right decision more quickly.

There is also a big link between what we eat and our emotions. Eating foods we’re intolerant to likely leads to a low mood, or even depression. Eating the right food makes us more likely to feel upbeat and happy.

Although your true quest might be to see the scales shift, or to be able to fit into those size 12 jeans again;

in my experience, it’s often the case that understanding and feeling how different things affect your whole system make it easier to make the right choices.

Even just the knowledge that you’ll be more productive tomorrow if you eat well today could give you a drive to make the right choices for reasons other than seeing what you want to see on the scales.

If we can make the smaller jeans almost a side benefit to feeling good and making ourselves as healthy as possible, I believe it makes the whole journey feel easier and more productive.

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks

by Andrew Staib, Principal Designer of Glorious Gardens The Rare Plants Man When he could hardly move around his Henfield back garden for lack of space, Steve Law decided to relocate his nursery of rare plants.

With a generous start-up grant from one of his gardening clients, Miss Green, he moved to Small Dole in 2011 and built a whole succession of sheds, polytunnels and raised beds to commit to his passion - rare plants. He is still moved today when he talks about the help Miss Green gave him. “She was 97 and loved her plants. I couldn’t have done it without her”.

Working as a gardener half the week, he devotes himself to his small holding for the rest of the time.

“I am not a garden centre that sells popular plants. I appeal to the people who love their plants and want to discover the unusual. I attend Rare Plant Fairs, swap plants with other enthusiasts and most of my business is mail order. I get orders from around the UK and Europe”.

This is how I found him. For a particular garden design client, I needed some Silphium terebinthinaceum and couldn’t find them anywhere. Through RHS Plant Finder, the national database of plants and plant sellers, I found Steve and he delivered them within the day!

“Most of my enquires come through the RHS. I have to submit a list of the plants I intend to have on sale for the 12 months ahead by October each year.”

We walk around his nursery. As a garden designer I am delighted that there are so many plants that I have never seen before.

‘Some of what I do is experimentation, finding out how things will grow in this climate. I am lucky as this plot used to be a Market Garden and the area as a whole has great loamy soil, though I do concentrate on seaside and chalk tolerant plants as this is what most people have in this part of Sussex.”

“I tried selling at farmer’s markets but most people wanted to buy something in flower, whereas some of my plants looked like a few sticks poking out of a pot.

They don’t know it will grow and have wonderful rare and enormous pink flowers!”

“I grow all my plants from seeds and cuttings, normally in batches of 12. Occasionally someone comes and buys a whole batch but normally collectors come and buy two or three.”

Cynara humilis albus

“That Incarvillea there”, he points to a small collection of black pots, “I named Brighton Pride for their deep pink flowers that I had never seen before”. He shows me around the greenhouse and raised beds. Every plant has a story which Steve generously recounts.

Incarvillea “There is a Salix bockii, the only willow to flower in the Autumn and in there,” Steve points to a poly tunnel, “is a Tibouchina”. He has a note of the collectors pride in his voice. I look in and see a plant just coming into bloom with the most lush and velvety purple flowers”

Steve goes on to describe his beliefs. “ I admire Beth Chatto as she was the first plantswoman who really committed to choosing plants that were right for the environment, rather than the environment having to be altered to suit the plant.” With his Masters in Ecology, Steve is the thinking man’s gardener who everyday gets his hands dirty, practising what he preaches.

"I don’t have favourite plants as such, though I’m

I wouldn’t sell a client a plant if I don’t think it would work in their garden. “With climate change, more and more plants are now moving into the hardy class. Some Begonias and Impatiens are now surviving in the UK all year round” We stop near an extraordinarily pretty and spikey Cynara humilis albus.

I ask to take Steve’s photo. He tries to straighten his hair. But to no avail. He is as wild, rare and down to earth as his wonderful plant collection.

Where to visit this June Hundreds of gardens and trails are opening in June for charities.

If you look up online for Open Gardens and type in where you live you will be surprised how many are near where you live.

Good luck trying to decide!

June tasks  Deadhead perennial flowers, as they will often create a new flush of buds as you inhibit the energy of the plant going into seed production. Plus the first flush of Hybrid and Patio roses may have finished so deadhead them back to a couple of new, outward facing buds though you may have to wait for these as we have had a slow Spring this year.  Bring any tender plants out from your conservatory now  Make sure any ponds don’t get swamped with blanket weed  Cut back any shrubs that flowered in May eg Wigelia and Philadelphius  Mulch any new plants that went in this year with bark or compost as they will dry out much faster than established plants as their roots are not as plugged into the surrounding soil  Pinch out side shoots on your tomatoes.  Give a June Blood Fish and Bone fertiliser treatment to your beds now.

Flat Roof Repair

By Chris Ennis FRICS Over the last 40 years I have seen and walked on countless flat roofs. Years ago, I could scale ladders quickly and safely... these days it’s all rather different as age takes its toll on my once strong knees.

Flat roofs are frequently a source of problems for the house holder since they are invariably ‘out of sight and out of mind’ until water stains appear on the ceilings beneath.

I was recently called to inspect a roof for a lady who was concerned that her 3-year-old garage roof was leaking at the edges. The thought of water entering her property was keeping her awake at night. Not wishing for her nocturnal slumbers to be disturbed, I dropped round to take a look.

Her roof was unusual in so far as it may have encapsulated an asbestos cement roof clearly seen on a neighbour’s property. Roofs of this age were typically constructed with normal roof joists clad on their upper surfaces with either ply-wood or water proof oriented strand board (OSB) on to which the first layer of perforated felt is attached. Two further layers of felt were bedded in hot bitumen, the upper lay being smooth and painted with a solar reflective paint.

The edges of the roof were finished in heavy felt nosings / drips bedded in bitumen and they had fractured on their upper edges.

(c) Bryn Pinzgauer

Attempts had been made to stem water ingress, but regrettably workmanship was not of high quality so options for further repair were rather limited.

I have seen flat roofs last a less than 6 months from new, but if materials used are of good quality under the direction of a skilled contractor, they may last 20 years or more. In this instance, and for the sake of economy, I have recommended the use of a modern proprietary roofing repair product under the trade name ‘Aquapol’ (other brands are available!). There is an interesting video on the internet showing Aquapol and similar products in use.

For enterprising souls, I see that flat roofs are sold on E bay ‘from £400’ in kit form but this is not a DIY option for my elderly client.

40 History

Chichester’s most eminent Victorian By local historian Andrew Berriman I’m a Victorian enthusiast, always have been. A Gladstone bag is indeed my bag. At University my best days were spent researching in exhaustive depth the Irish Home Rule Debate (1880/86). When people ask me which person was the most influential Victorian I think they expect me to say Karl Marx, or Charles Darwin, or maybe Louis Pasteur.

My answer causes surprise because his name isn’t well known, even to many local Sussex people, and even though he was born, on June 3rd 1804, just ten miles north of Chichester. His fame rests on his advocacy of Free Trade between nations, to increase prosperity in the world. Britain’s economic strength in the Victorian period was based on trade. But his real genius was his advocacy of trade as a means to an end: peace and harmony between nations. He believed that nations who traded together would not go to war with each other.

In the Victorian era (1837/1901) Britain avoided any major military conflict in Europe, apart from the Crimean War, which was essentially just a siege of the Russian fortress at Sebastopol.

So take a well deserved bow, Richard Cobden. He was born in 1804 in the parish of Heyshott, in the family’s small farm cottage at Dunford. If you’re not sure where that is, drive up the A286 towards Midhurst. You pass on your left the ‘Greyhound’ pub, on the Cocking Causeway, and immediately on your right is a turning marked Dunford and Pendean. Just a few yards up the slope you will see on your right a huge, plain, stark, stone obelisk, erected to Cobden’s memory in 1868, after his death.

Dunford House He had both exhausted and bankrupted himself leading the campaign for the Repeal of the Corn Laws in 1846, and for Free Trade. In 1850 a grateful nation raised an £80,000 testimonial for him. Cobden used

Memorial part of this to buy back the family cottage and Dunford estate, and build in 1853 the pink-washed Dunford House, still to be found, hidden away at the end of Dunford Hollow, a long sunken lane, half a mile beyond the obelisk. Cobden loved it here, this ‘secluded corner, within a couple of miles of the summit of the South Downs, where we have the finest air and some of the prettiest views in England’. He lived here for the last twenty years of his life. The house was bequeathed by the Cobden Trust to the YMCA, who now, controversially, intend to sell it, and or possibly demolish it.

Cobden died in April 1865, and was buried in the then newly-built West Lavington church. On the day of his funeral a long train brought many mourners down from London to Midhurst Station. All the great and the good of Victorian Liberalism were there, including his Free Trade ally John Bright, and the later Prime Minister on four occasions, Mr. Gladstone. The church was thronged way beyond its capacity. It is pleasing that local memorials to Cobden can still be discovered.

A brass plaque in the front pew, just below the pulpit, at St. James’ Church, Heyshott, indicates where he sat during Sunday services. A tablet, above nine ears of corn, summarises his life: ‘A Sussex man and great Reformer, who became leader of the Anti Corn Law League. In his lifetime his fame spread all over the world, and his name shall live for evermore.’ Heyshott villagers are particularly fond of the Cobden family, as their village hall, formerly the village school, was donated to the village in 1870 by Richard Cobden’s last surviving daughter, Jane Cobden Unwin. It is still known as the Cobden Club.

Richard Cobden was a great man indeed. He refused all honours or titles. His immense achievement, however, is captured by the few words on his obelisk: FREE TRADE, PEACE, GOODWILL AMONG NATIONS.
