I attended the Welkin prep school from 1958 - 1960. As I lived in Cuckfield, a few miles away, I had to take two buses (change at Haywards Heath bus station) to Lindfield, picking up other pupils on the way. The bus stopped at the foot of the village, near the pond, so the walk up the high street was a daily occurrence to enter the stone gates almost opposite All Saints Church. This lovely video of yours brought back so many memories of that wonderful school with the grounds that any boy would love! Mr Cook and his staff were generally decent and Mrs Cook was in charge of the kitchen who served really good food - the only school meals I've ever had that were eaten in total silence and respect! In my 70s now and last visited the area in about 2015 to see if it had changed - it hadn't. Thank you so much for this - lots of memories.
