For Genealogical Enquiries the local Diocesan Record Office is:

Diocese records are officially held at the West Sussex Records Office in Chichester, however, a lot of information can also be found at the East Sussex Records Office in Lewes.

If you have an interest in our two churches and the parish, try dropping us a note first in case someone already has the information to hand. A search at the Access to Archives website will tell you which records office hold what - they are at http://www.a2a.org.uk/.

Most burials have taken place at Holtye as St Stephen's was not licenced for burials until around the 1960s. If you have a genealogy interest with Hammerwood and Holtye, please feel free to contact us.
