SUMMARY:Warship Ashore!  New Perspectives on the wreck of HMS Brazen
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr Cathryn Pearce. \nSpeaking at our Hillcrest meeting for the first time is Cathryn Pearce\, a Peacehaven-based senior lecturer in Naval and Coastal History at the University of Portsmouth. This evening\, Cathryn will share some new perspectives on the history and legacy of the wreck of HMS Brazen\, lost under our cliffs in 1800. Where did the story we know come from? What other stories can be told? Rather than a simple tale of shipwreck and loss\, Cathryn shows how Brazen was also central to Brighton and Newhaven’s experience of privateering\, smuggling\, shipwreck\, salvage\, and death during the French Revolutionary War. \nMembers free. \nGuests welcome: £5.00. \nDoors open at 7pm. \n

SUMMARY:Lewes from a Newhaven Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bob Cairns. \nHow did residents of Newhaven interact with Lewes in times gone by? Perhaps by catching the train or the 123 bus service to get to school or a workplace. Maybe a visit to the market\, the auction rooms or the cinema. There was live music in the pubs and in the Town Hall – did you know Pink Floyd played there in 1968? Then of course\, there was the Horse Racing at Lewes Racecourse\, the spectacle of Lewes Bonfire in November and watching Newhaven Football Club play against Lewes at the Dripping Pan. Bob Cairns\, who was brought up in Newhaven\, where he has traced his ancestors back to 1680\, reflects on the relationship between the two towns by delving into his huge collection of postcards and photographs. \nMembers free. \nGuests welcome: £5.00. \nDoors open at 7pm.
