We make a return to the Petworth area for a day visit on 18 June. The day will start at Burton Mill with a tour by Barry Flannigan after which we repair to lunch at The Badgers pub near Petworth station. After lunch we move to Petworth Station where we split into small groups to view progress with the restoration of the Pullman Car Princess Ena rescued from Selsey last year.

A walking tour of Lewes’s industrial heritage. From the Victorians to the mid-20th Century, Lewes was an important centre of manufacturing and commerce, with its own gas works, electricity and water companies and boasting several breweries, ironworks, cement works, printers and a range of smaller manufacturers, mainly concentrated along the river, leading to the geographical expansion of the town with the construction of new working-class housing.

Meet at 7pm at the Barbican, Castle Gate off the High Street. About a 15-minute walk from the railway station allowing for the steep climb up to the High Street.

Nearby car parks at the Maltings, Westgate Street, Market Lane and West Street all free on Saturdays after 5pm.
