Walk and Talk Event On the 11th July this year, a walk and talk event was staged and was well attended. The walk was from Edburton Church to Newtimber Church, via Poynings Church, to be followed by refreshments and a talk by Professor Alan Lester. There was, however, the option just to meet at Newtimber Church for the refreshments and the talk! Professor Alan Lester had given a talk previously at Newtimber Church and returned for this event. Alan is a renowned scholar and author from Sussex University specialising in British colonialism. Professor Lester gave a fascinating talk about the history of the church and its unique connections to extraordinary global events. If you would like to know more about this talk and its subject, it is available on Alan’s blog which can be accessed using this web address https://alanlester.co.uk/blog/newtimber-church-and-the-british-empire/ Additionally, if you would like hear Alan Lester's talk, it is available on Youtube by using the link https://youtu.be/BcAWBlgy27U.

What could be better than a walk in the South Downs followed by refreshments and an interesting talk?

Lots to do for all the family
