Yes, why? What better day to ask questions.
Why or how are you connected to Cuckfield and if you aren't might you visit it at some point?
Do take a look at my website (link below) where you can see a wealth of information about the village.
Why or how am I connected to Cuckfield?
I am connected to Cuckfield by attending Holy Trinity Church, although we don't live in the parish. I sang in the church choir for nearly 30 years as an alto and both my children sang in the choir also. My husband and I are readers at the morning service and I was a member of Cuckfield Mothers Union for many years. Twice now we have sponsored and decorated a tree for the Christmas Tree Festival and I have helped decorate the Mothers Union and Choir trees. We still attend the church periodically although more frequently connect via Zoom for the Sunday services.
Holy Trinity means a lot to us; it is a place of peace and prayerfulness where you can't help but think back to it's ancient origins and all that has happened since.

I am always interested in other one-place studies as I gather inspiration for my own study of Whitmore in Staffordshire.
ReplyDeleteI am also interested in Cuckfield as my husband's family is connected to Cuckfield: his great great grandmother Eliza Morley nee Sinden was born there and her mother, Mercy Sinden nee Rose, died there in 1852. I wrote about Mercy in this year's challenge: https://anneyoungau.wordpress.com/2025/04/15/m-is-for-mercy/ I wrote about Eliza in 2018 at https://anneyoungau.wordpress.com/2018/04/05/%ef%bb%bfe-is-for-eliza/
My husband's third great grandmother Sarah Morley nee Peters also died there in 1854.
