A talk on Sussex Pub Signs

Sunday 24th May 2026 at 15:00–16:00

Do you know your Royal Oak from your Seven Bells, your Plough from your Shepherd and Dog? Come and find out!
Dr Janet Pennington will give an entertaining, illustrated talk on this fascinating subject.
Deeply woven into the social fabric and history of ancient Britain, this compelling talk will shine a light on our unique heritage ~ everyday buildings that we pass in our streets or villages without a second thought. Many dating back many centuries. They are an irreplaceable British social institution.

And where better than in a church to find out more!

Cream teas will be served from 2pm as well as after the talk. Come early and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this beautiful churchyard at the foot of the South Downs.
