Hello and welcome to this months edition of Inside Shoreham. I hope that we have a better month weather-wise and not so wet and blowy.

We can hope!

Well to cheer us up, you can read some great articles of things happening this month. For example, we have a wonderful article this

month celebrating the Diamond Anniversary of local couple Dodo and Harry Treadwell. We send them our best wishes for 60 years of

wedded bliss and for many more years ahead.

This month’s local historical piece by Judy Upton is about Bramber Castle which dates back to 1073 and is a very popular local attraction,

but do you know its history?

We also have this month the latest piece from our local PCSOs. You may have seen some posters around Adur, by children encouraging

dog owners to clean up after their dogs. Read about their origin on page 27 and much more news!

If you have been given or own an orchid and would like tips on how to grow and take care of them, there is an open day at Southwick

Nursery with the Orchid Society for you to go along and get great tips.

Finally, there are two new local businesses opening up in Shoreham Prestige Autotech (specialist car mechanics) and the other is

Sunshine Nursery (for your little tykes) and we wish them all the best in their new ventures.

Have a fabulous August,

Angela

A NeW AuTOMOTiVe repair centre has opened in Shoreham, specialising in vehicle diagnostics for

Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Smart and Mini. Prestige Autotech are also equipped to carry out general servicing and repairs for many other makes and models.

Owners Steve Rice (pictured left) and Phil Cook are highly qualifi ed vehicle technicians. They have over 35 years industry experience between them. The majority of which has been gained working on prestige vehicles such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW.

Both are local to Shoreham and are keen to establish a reputation for good service and honest advice.

Phil has followed in his father’s professional footsteps. Many locals will remember Trevor Cook who operated his own independent garage, TW Cook Motors, on Shoreham Beach until 2003. Inspired by his father, Phil gained his experience working for Vauxhall and Ford before rising to the ranks of Diagnostic Technician for Mercedes-Benz. Now Phil is determined to put that experience to good use in his own venture. He can see there is a gap in the market for a business such as Prestige Autotech

Scottish born Steve Rice, picked up the spanners working for Ford in Greenock, Renfrewshire before moving to a Sussex based independent Rolls-Royce specialist 20 years ago. For a short while Steve worked for Halfords at various locations throughout

Sussex before gaining specialist diagnostic experience with both BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

Phil says, “Without the high overheads the main dealers have, we are able to pass the savings on to our customers. We can offer all the experience and knowledge that you will fi nd at a main dealer but at a competitive price and with a more personal approach.”

Steve adds, “We believe in meeting our customers face-to-face and not via a receptionist as this can dilute information. Not only does this reassure the customer that they are in good hands but it also means we can get to the root of the problem a lot quicker.”

Most motorists will be all too familiar with the frustrations of second hand information and getting a straightforward answer. This is where Prestige Autotech is different. The customer is their priority. When you take your car to Prestige Autotech you can be assured that not only is the car in safe hands but also

that everything will be explained clearly to you. Phil and Steve pride themselves on being approachable and friendly so

taking your car to be fi xed shouldn’t be daunting.Prestige Autotech employ the latest in diagnostic equipment

providing the highest level of service and quality. Whether your vehicle is a classic Mercedes-Benz or a modern Mini you can be assured of fi rst class workmanship and honest advice.

You can fi nd Prestige Autotech at Hall Business Park, behind DAF Commercial in Dolphin Road, Shoreham – centrally positioned they are within easy reach of the railway station and able to offer a courtesy car if needed.To book your vehicle in for a service or for a free no obligation estimate, for the moment, call 07810 350932 whilst their new number is being installed, email [email protected] or visit www.prestigeautotech.co.uk for more information.

dOGS TruST SHOreHAM staff today launched an appeal to fi nd a ‘guide

human’ for a loveable blind Lurcher in their care. Maria is a striking-looking 4 year old Lurcher who was found wandering the streets a month ago and is now hoping to fi nd her perfect home.

Tracey Rae, Dogs Trust Shoreham manager, explains: “Poor Maria contracted an eye disease when she was

younger and now is almost completely blind. Despite an unfortunate start in life she is one of the most loveable residents currently at our centre. She is very gentle and friendly and a real favourite with the staff.”

Maria’s blindness causes her no discomfort but she needs a quiet home, ideally with another calm dog to help her settle in. Her new ‘guide human’

owners must have a garden she can potter about in, and she may struggle to manage more than one fl ight of stairs.If you think you can give Maria the perfect home, please contact Dogs Trust Rehoming Centre Shoreham on 01273 452576 or visit the centre between 12.00 midday and 4.00pm - any day except Tuesdays, when the centre is closed.

WilliAM de BrAOSe built Bramber castle shortly after

the Norman Conquest, around the year 1073. The name Bramber is from the Saxon 'Brymmburh' which means a fortifi ed place. Bramber was at this time in history an important port as the river Adur was wide and deep enough to be navigated as a shipping channel. The castle held a fi ne defensive position on the top of a natural mound that offers views as far as the Surrey hills to the north, as well as many miles of coastline.

Bramber is a motte and bailey castle and contains the ruins of a Norman church. Today the most prominent feature is the west wall of the gatehouse tower, which at 24 metres, still stands almost to its full original height. Within it, holes that held the fl oor joists and a single window are still recognisable. Beyond are the foundations of the guardhouse and living quarters, but sadly little more of the castle still exists than a few sections of its perimeter wall. The ‘motte’, or mound is north of the gatehouse and rises to a height of 10 metres and the ‘bailey’ refers to the perimeter wall of the castle.

The church at Bramber Castle was originally built in 1075 as a chapel for the fortifi cation and also housed a small Benedictine college. Some of the original nave remains, but the building was badly damaged in the 17th century and inexpertly restored by the Victorians. The original tower and transepts now house the present chancel.

Bramber had been important to the Saxon kings, and with the 1066 Norman Conquest, William the Conqueror gave the surrounding lands to his kinsman William de Braose.

However in 1208, in the reign of King John, the castle became embroiled in a crisis. The current baron, also named William de Braose had been an ally of the King John, but now the monarch turned against him, claiming he owed him money for fi nes levied against his Irish estates. It is likely though that the main reason for King John’s actions was envy of the de Braose family’s wealth and castles. The king asked for the four de Braose’s children as hostages while

their father was being investigated. William de Braose’s wife Matilda though was not going to entrust her children to a king who had already murdered his own nephew, Prince Arthur. Fearing for the youngsters’ lives and with the king’s army marching on Bramber castle, the de Braose family fl ed.

William escaped to France but his wife Matilda and children were captured and taken to Windsor and Corfe Castles where they were deliberately starved to death. It is said that the ghosts of two girls and a boy from the family still haunt Bramber castle, looking emaciated and begging for scraps. William de Braose died in exile and King John seized Bramber Castle and gave it and its lands to his second son, the Earl of Cornwall. Eventually after a period of confi scation Bramber Castle returned to the ownership of the de Braose family and was part of their Barony of Bramber until their hereditary line fi nally died out in 1324. Then it passed to the Mowbray family, who then held the castle for several generations, and fi nally to the Howard family. It was occupied until the 14th century and then left derelict and abandoned to fall into disrepair.

Bramber castle’s later history is not well documented, though records mention a skirmish in Bramber during the English Civil War, around 1642. It is known that the church was badly damaged by Cromwell’s guns being set up in its transepts. From here it was possible to fi re on the castle itself and the Parliamentary forces did destroy much of the castle. After the Civil War, it is likely that much of the rubble and remaining stonework was taken by local people to repair or build their own homes.

In Victorian times, Bramber Castle became a popular day-trip destination. Bramber’s Castle Hotel and pub rented the grounds as a tea rooms and pleasure park. Like Shoreham’s Swiss Gardens, Bramber Castle was bustling every weekend with coach parties and children on Sunday school outings. Fairground rides and amusements were set up all around the castle. Today however the castle mound is a much more tranquil beauty spot, popular with walkers, picnickers, and those who want to peruse the ruins and enjoy the wonderful views.

iN JuNe MANY lenders increased the cost of their fi xed rate mortgages, some by as much as 1%. At the same time,

many reduced their tracker rates. Previous to this, most people were rushing to take fi xed rate mortgages but now things have changed.

The Bank of England base rate is at an all time low of 0.5%. The tracker deals are set at a percentage above the bank base rate, for example, they could track at 3.25% above, meaning that your rate would be 3.75%. If the bank base rate increases, then the margin would still apply and also if it reduces.

The base rate is only likely to increase therefore people have been rushing for the security of a fi xed rate, but with the recent increases they no longer look so attractive. To illustrate this, I have looked up some rates assuming 75% borrowing. If you took a two year fi xed rate this would be in the region of 4.48%, the two year tracker would commence at 3.29%. A three year fi xed would be approximately 4.98%, compare this to a three year tracker starting at 3.29%, the fi ve year fi xed would be around 5.79%, for comparison, a tracker rate for the full term of your mortgage would start at 3.75%.

When looking at these actual fi gures, you can see why people would fi nd the tracker rates suddenly very attractive. Taking the three year fi xed rate as an example, the bank base rate would need to increase by 1.69% to equate to the fi xed rate alternative. The next question is, how likely is this to happen, and if it does, when?

The US Fed recently announced that they anticipate keeping rates very low for an extended period of time, this has an impact on our markets and our rates. People are now starting to think that rates will remain low for longer than expected. This, combined with the higher fi xed rates has meant that tracker rates are now looking much more attractive.

What rate is best for you?If you are taking a new mortgage then the rate is very much dependent on the percentage borrowing you are taking. If you need a 85% mortgage or a 90%, the rate will be higher and your choice of fi xed or variable could be limited. (In fact currently there are very few variable rates if you need a 90% mortgage). As there are only a few deals you may fi nd that a fi xed rate mortgage would be the only viable option. If you have a higher deposit you will have a much larger choice of both fi xed and tracker rates.

In this fast changing market, the only way of fi nding the best rate for you is to look at the actual rates on offer for your situation and borrowing level. Once you know what choice you have your adviser will be able to match the right deal for your situation. You should speak to an independent adviser who has access to the whole marketplace.For independent fi nancial advice and a free initial consultation please call me Claire Cook on 01273 224667. I would be very happy to assist.

SuSSex Wildlife TruST (SWT) says stark climate

predictions are a ‘call to arms’ after Hilary Benn, Environment Secretary, announced the results of cutting-edge scientific projections.

Based on Met Office science, the UK Climate Projections 2009, provide a detailed map of how climate change might affect every part of the UK over the next century.

In the South East projections include an increase in average summer temperatures of between 2 and 6 degrees centigrade and a 22% decrease in average summer rainfall.

“These findings are sobering,” says Dr Tony Whitbread, Chief Executive

of SWT, “Without decisive action we face soaring summer temperatures, water shortages, heat stress and floods - all of which impacts on our health, the economy and our wildlife.

“We need to create a living landscape in Sussex now,” continues Dr Whitbread, “If our environment becomes further degraded it will not only be wildlife that suffers. At a national and local level we must build an environment that is able to adapt to climate change. This means building a large green network – a matrix of wildlife habitats so that plants and animals can move and adapt. Currently our wildlife habitats are too fragmented and as the

climate changes, plants and animals will simply disappear resulting in the degradation of the environment on which we all rely.”

Restoring the natural environment on a landscape-scale not only helps wildlife it can provide essential ecological services such as alleviating floods, controlling pollution and helping with the storage of carbon dioxide.

SWT is already proposing green networks for Sussex and endeavouring to develop larger blocks of wildlife habitat centred on its nature reserves. The Trust aims to work with local communities and landowners to build on this vision of a healthy, interconnected, robust

environment – an attractive green matrix in which people and wildlife can flourish in a changing world. To find out how SWT is working towards developing an adaptable environment visit our climate change page at www.sussexwt.org.uk/conservation/page 00029.htmArea maps and findings from the UK Climate Projections 2009 are publicly available online visit http://ukcp09.defra.gov.uk

“AlCOHOl ANd CHOCOlATe!”, ”lack of will-power”, ”good-

living after I got married!”…just a few of the responses given by members of the Southwick Healthy Eating Club when asked why they so valued their weekly support group and ‘weigh-ins’.

But just eight weeks ago the future of the fl ourishing over 60s slimmers’ club hung in the balance. Run by medical centre health visitors, the club faced imminent closure when the organisers withdrew their involvement.

Fortunately the Club’s plight came to the attention of the Adur Older Persons’ Network (AOPN) and through its community engagement work it was able to offer the help and support required for the group to continue to independently.

“Helping older people to sustain healthy and fulfi lling lives is what AOPN is all about,” says Peter Hornsby, AOPN community engagement worker. “It made absolute sense that we should step in and help the healthy eating group to survive.”

The various aspects of running the club were divided into several small jobs so that none of the members felt overwhelmed with responsibility. This was then used as a basis of a constitution and regular participants were invited to become committee members.

“ We really thought we were going to have to stop”, explains the Club’s newly appointed Chairperson, Rita Watkins. “We are so grateful for Peter’s involvement in setting up the constitution. We’re doing ok now!”

With its future secure, the Club has drawn up a programme of speakers and activities for forthcoming meetings. Weight-loss expert and ex-Miss UK beauty queen, Aileen Chase, explains the Club’s healthy approach to living: “Plenty of fruit and vegetables, skimmed milk and not going without food. We have incentives to reach target weight but the main thing is support and friendship.”For more information about Southwick Healthy Eating Club please contact Rita on: For a full directory of voluntary groups/services for older people visit: www.aopn.org.uk or call: 01273 900453. 01273 900453.

CLEANING UP THE DOG'S ACTDog fouling has always been a priority problem at Neighbourhood Panel Meetings. Something had to be done.

PCSO Heaton and PCSO Knight joined forces with the Adur

Council to produce a poster designed by local children to put up all around Adur advertising the new Dog Control orders that came into force in April this year. These posters are designed to encourage dog owners to clear up after their dogs. After all, it is not the dogs fault, but that of the owners. Children too, taking their dogs for a walk should also be educated to clear up.

Pictured right is the winner Mia Britton from Eastbrook North School, runner up Imogen Wilson from Eastbrook South School. Lucie Ayres from Shoreham Beach primary school was the second runner-up, but could not make the presentation day so PCSO Knight accepts the prize on her behalf.

MEET PIB – OUR PORTABLE INFLATABLE BUILDINGSussex Police at Shoreham and Lancing would like to offi cially launch our Portable Infl atable Building, fondly known as PIB. It is rather special to us, and our ‘celebrities’ emblazoned on the side are PC Anouska Duffy, PCSO Sandra Heaton, and PCSO Metcalfe of the Neighbourhood Policing Team.

It is much more convenient and easy

to use compared with the trailer mobile unit we used to have.

The intended purpose of PIB is as a visual aid (and shelter) to carry out Community Engagement, Crime Prevention Road Shows, Street Briefi ngs, Urban Days etc., and supporting other local agency initiatives with our local government Safer Adur Team, Schools, Youth Workers, Fire Station to name a few. Come along and see members of your Neighbourhood Policing Team in action. .

Some of you will no doubt have already seen PIB during our promotional events for National Drugs Week and National Bike Week. A lot more events are planned during the summer, and these will be advertised.

Come along for a chat, information, advice, or just to say hello to the team. We look forward to meeting as many of you as possible, and remember we are there for you.

CRIME REDUCTION CONTINUES

Pictured here are PCSO Knight at the wheel, PCSO Hollin left, and PCSO Harris right.

The Adur District continues to be a very safe place to live with the latest fi gures detailing crime reduction in four priority crime areas since the beginning

of April. The most signifi cant decrease is in burglary which has seen a 55.3% reduction, vehicle crime has been reduced by 6.5% and criminal damage down by 7.3%.

Sussex Police has a target of reducing crime by 3% in the forthcoming fi nancial year. Currently Adur has an overall crime reduction of 18.9% which equates to 160 fewer victims since April in comparison to last year statistics thereby being a top performing District within Sussex Police.

Operation Respect has been extremely successful during recent years in the reduction of crime and will be continuing during the summer months. Since the beginning of June the Adur Neighbourhood Response Teams and Neighbourhood Policing Teams have had street intervention with 80 members of the public and have seized over 40 litres of alcohol from local youths which clearly assists in reducing anti-social behaviour and criminal activity.

DATES FOR YOUR DIARYNeighbourhood Panel Meetings: PCSO Amy Hollin St Nicolas’ Ward to be held on Thursday 17th September at 1830 hours at Shoreham Free Church; PCSO Rosemary Hill St Mary’s Ward to be held on Tuesday 22nd September at 1900 hours at the Sussex Yacht Club; and PCSO Elizabeth Taylor Southwick Green to be held on 11 August at 1900 hours at the Southwick Green Cricket Club.

Drop in DayPCSO’s Elizabeth Taylor, Sandra Heaton, and Nicci Hawthorne on 11 August from 1000 – 1130 hours at the Southwick Community Centre.

A TeleGrAM frOM the Queen was among the many congratulations

received by Dodo and Harry Treadwell from Southwick who celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary this August.

The couple were married at the Parish Church of St Peter’s, Newton- in- Makerfi eld, Lancashire, and came to live in Sussex shortly afterwards when Mr Treadwell took up a post as the Shoreham and District reporter for the now defunct Sussex Daily News.

He later set up a freelance news agency and founded a successful public relations and publishing company.

Mrs Treadwell created a

unique shop in Shoreham-by-Sea - The Real Thing - which provided an outlet for the work of many local potters and Sussex craftsmen.

The couple also ran a youth club in Shoreham where they taught

ballroom dancing and Mr Treadwell was a founder member and chairman of Shoreham and Southwick Round Table and later president of Steyning & Adur Valley Rotary Club. He was a member of Pycombe Golf Club. Mrs Treadwell was chairman of Shoreham and Southwick Ladies Circle.

Both are currently members of Adur Indoor Bowls Club and Southwick Bowls Club. Mr Treadwell is a well known Bridge player and a member of the Henfi eld Duplicate Bridge Society as well as Worthing,

Shoreham and Southwick Bridge clubs.

Many friends and family members, including their three children and granddaughter, were invited to celebrate at a garden party at the home which the couple designed and built for their retirement in the walled garden of the Manor House at Southwick.
