East Sussex memories
Married in Rodmell
I was born in Rodmell on 25th November 1964 at Mill Furlong. I continued to live there until my father built Abergavenny House. I eventually married the son of the Pearce family who bought Mill furlong from my father Terry Denyer. I continued to live at Abergavenny House until I married Steve Pearce in 1986. I have lots of memories of Rodmell but I am sure my brothers and sister have more.

Family Tree at Barcombe
My great-grandmother was born here in 1847, Elizabeth Reed. Her father William was employed as a farming bailiff.

Such a pretty village I was very pleased to have visited it, and almost wished the family had not moved away.

Growing up at Coombe Place
My family and I moved to a bungalow at Coombe Place in 1960. My father, Walter Motley, took up the post of farm manager on this 100 acre dairy farm with a herd of Jersey cattle.

The 'big ...read more here

Coombe Place
I was born in this lovely house in1970. My parents worked here for Mr. Cannon from 1960 until 1983. We then moved to Italy, my parents home country. I have many sweet memories but unfortunately I have lost all contacts, maybe because when we went to Italy I was only 13.All I know is that the Cannons died many years ago and the house was sold.I hope to go back for a visit soon, to show my children where I grew up...very happily!
