Network of cycle routes
The Department of Transport is giving the SDNPA more than £5 million to create a network of cycle routes into and around the South Downs National Park, including improvements to routes in Hampshire, extensions to routes in West Sussex, and the creation of new routes out of Brighton and around East Sussex. Routes that incorporate railway stations will get particular attention. Implementation is intended to take two years. Further details are due soon.
Small Dole Horticultural Society Summer Show
The show will be held on Saturday August 17th 2013 in the Mackley Sports Field. The show is open from 1.30pm, entry to the marquee commences at 2pm and the show will close at 5pm. There will be stalls from local charities and societies, childrens’ amusements, music from the Patcham Silver Band and refreshments. The marquee will hold the displays of local produce, handicrafts, photography and cooking that will be judged as part of the show’s events.
Fox eye view
If you have ever wondered what it would be like to race south down Saddlescombe Road with your nose just twelve inches from the tarmac, well, here’s your chance to find out. It is somewhat gripping in a Warhol/Empire kind of way, only shorter.
The Masterplan
A free concert in which a reformed 0asis perform their old B-sides in Stanmer Park? No, sorry. More like an exercise in which B&HCC attempts to get external funding for all those tasks that have been left undone since Brighton Corporation took the estate over back in 1947. However they are providing an excellent large-scale PDF map of the park which may prove useful next time you visit.
