“Chanctonbury Ring – The Story of a Sussex Landmark”
A Talk given by Dr JANET PENNINGTON
December 6th at 2.30 p.m. at Storrington Museum,
Old School, School Lane, Storrington RH20 4LL.
Chanctonbury Ring on the South Downs has been an iconic landmark for Sussex inhabitants and visitors for over 200 years. However, the ring of trees, most of which were destroyed by the great storm of 1987 and replanted in 1990, covers another ring, the c.750 BC (Late Bronze Age) earthwork. The talk reveals the history of the area, a murder on the hill, the tree species over the centuries and a spate of literary outpourings about the Ring by 19th and 20th century novelists, poets and travel writers.
Janet Pennington is an independent historian with a PhD in early-modern Sussex inn and tavern history. Janet gives illustrated talks throughout Sussex, particularly on pubs, aspects of Wiston Estate history and a variety of other subjects, such as the ritual protection of the home and travel in the past. She lives in Steyning and is at present revising her book on Chanctonbury Ring (2011). Her website www.sussexhistorytalks.co.uk reveals more.
Venue: Old School, School Lane, Storrington RH20 4LL.

“Anne of Cleves – The Woman behind the Portrait”
A Talk given by Helen Poole
January 3rd at 2.30 p.m. at Storrington Museum,
Old School, School Lane, Storrington RH20 4LL.
After an extraordinary six months of marriage to Henry VIII, this German princess preferred to live a quiet life, earning part of her income from her Sussex manors. She continued to have connections with some major figures of the time, so the talk aims to see her in the context of a very vibrant and interesting period.
Helen Poole trained as a museum curator, working in Sussex museums and heritage sites since 1991. She shares her enthusiasm for history and archaeology through talks and books. One of these sites, Anne of Cleves House in Lewes has enabled her to pursue her interest in the Tudor period.
Venue: Old School, School Lane, Storrington RH20 4LL.
