Church House And Church Platt

A Memory of Cuckfield.

In 1950 I lived with my parents in Church House - the partially obscured building on the right. Except for three years during the war I lived there from 1938 to 1958. I remember the spire of the church being struck by lightning (in 1944,I think) and it catching fire. At the far end of Church Platt was a small car park for the White Hart where I used to play endless games of football with my friends. I live in east Kent now, but visit Cuckfield occasionally,and have found this scene little altered.
