Left behind on Shoreham West Beach on Thursday 11th August 2022

Hi I need a central heating electrician to switch on a Hive system in my new flat in Shoreham beach. It’s just that I don’t know how to run a Hive system. I need someone soon as it’s very cold

The path is to be closed for a year.  There is a temporary site office between the runways and the Adur path.  

Does anyone know what works are being planned that need the path closed so soon after the flood defences have been completed?

Hello, I was wondering if any one knew who owns the little farm near Church Green in Shoreham? I think it is privately owned....just a small farm with a few horses and sheep.

If they needed anyone to help feed/muck out the pens, I would gladly help, especially if any of the helpers are ill right now.

If you have any information, could you get back to me? Thank you so much. Jo Hood

We retired to Shoreham nearly 6 years ago.  Loving the place as most folks do of course.

Flooding fears cited in campaign against new town

A proposed new town of up to 10,000 homes in mid-Sussex could cause major flooding problems for the Shoreham area, say campaigners.

The siting of such huge housing development in the countryside near Henfield is being fiercely opposed by residents of that area, but their campaign is being supported by Shoreham residents who fear that resultant flooding downstream through the Adur valley could overwhelm the town's new flood defences.

Developers want to build what they are calling Mayfield Market Town on open land in the parishes of Henfield, Shermanbury and Woodmancote. It is low-lying land within the Adur valley, and the run-off from large-scale development there will add to the river volumes.

Despite being deemed "unsustainable" by a Government Planning Inspector in a 2018 inquiry, and being excluded from the Mid-Sussex Plan, the proposal has still not been ruled out. The local planning authority, Horsham District Council, is preparing a public consultation exercise about future development sites, and campaigners are pressing for Mayfield to be excluded from the final options.

The main campaigning group, Lambs (Locals against Mayfield building sprawl), is hoping public pressure will finally see off the proposal, and their Lambs website (click here) gives all the background information and advice on how to express views.
