    Perfect answer. The police, assuming they care enough to turn up before you get bored and leave, will merely confirm you're stood on public land and can do what you want. Or they'll tell you where the public land starts and ask you to go stand over there instead, and then lose all interest in whatever you're doing.

      Took 10 years planning and few million quid of mostly volunteer donations. The thoughts of management were that they didn't think the membership that donated would want to see a return on their investment. It was a pretty sore point at the first AGM after linking to national rail. Little has been made of the advantage since. The appointment of a new commercial director last week could change that.

    East Grinstead Hospital is the birthplace for modern plastic surgery where British and Allied aircrew injured during World War II, primarily treated by Archibald McIndoe at the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead. There are also two water mills , and you missed a photogenic spot stone farm rocks overlooking the nearby reservoir, a popular spot for rock climbing. There is also Sackville College, founded as alms-houses in 1609 as well as Standen, the National Trust’s flagship Arts and Crafts country house. Famous for its William Morris wallpapers, textiles and contemporary fittings, the house was built in the 1890s by architect Philip Webb. a lot of history related to East Grinstead right back pre-Roman times.

    East Grinstead was a big centre for the UK iron making industry around the time of the small French UK tour. Growing up in Shoreham in the 70s and the cement works hung a grey cloud over the surrounding area like some monochrome micro climate.
