A view of Hackenden Lane, with a bridge over the railway on the left and Cooks Pond Viaduct on the right.
Taken in 1908, this image was used on a postcard sent to a Mrs Taylor of Shovelshrode Beacon, possibly from her sister, May, talking about a recent trip to the seaside.

#OnthisDay in 1945, a Victory Parade was held in the High Street to make the end of the Second World War in Europe (and thus the threat to the United Kingdom).
Here you can see members of the East Grinstead Home Guard parading towards the London Road.

This photo shows nos 34-38 West Street, prior to their demolition in May 1980 to make way for the new Library.
It was taken from the site of the former Police Station in West Street by members of the East Grinstead Camera Club.

Sunday 5th April. At approx 8.30am our storage sheds at Mt Noddy cemetery East Grinstead were broken into and power tools stolen. The black VW Golf then drove through the locked gates to escape. If you saw anything or now see the badly damaged car, please report to 101

A big thank you to @WestSussexFire for the loan of their info truck which we’re using to screen visitors when they come to our hospital. It means come rain or shine we can check the temperature & ask brief questions of all our visitors to help protect them, our staff & patients.

2/2: Remember, someone posing as a good samaritan and offering to help those in isolation with things like buying shopping, then keeping the money, is committing theft. This should be reported to local police.

1/2: Fraudsters may use the fact more people are staying at home, as an opportunity to operate doorstep scams. Our video with @age_uk explains how to protect yourself: youtu.be/0IyOymAhEJs
