We were delighted to receive yesterday a call of support from local celeb couple Ron and Joan Ham. Residents in Storrington for more than 60 years, the Hams have been leading figures in village life and many key developments – not least the establishment of our local Storrington & District Museum (which Joan championed to completion in 2000).
Joan is also widely recognised as Storrington & Sullington’s de facto historical expert with no fewer than five books on local history to her credit – including Storrington: In Living Memory and Storrington in Pictures. If you want to understand how Storrington was and came to be, then ask Joan.
As well as offering their congratulations and support to the #SaveTheGlebe campaign, Ron also told us of Joan’s forthcoming History of The Glebe feature article which will be published in the next issue of the Parish Magazine (3Heralds)
So, for those of you who don’t know how important the Glebe has been in Storrington’s history: stay tuned!
It’s certainly much more than dog walkers, kite-fliers and nature-lovers! Think parties, church fairs, carnivals, local competitions, school lunches and more.
All will be revealed next month!
