Uckfield stories of the week

Have you spotted our features delving into Uckfield's history? There's a list of them here.

We added our latest story to this section this week. It is written by Ian Ritchie about the history of the town's fire service.

Ian writes about the brigade getting a horse-drawn steamer in 1910 and recalls a period when firemen were summoned by maroons fired from the garden of the Alma Arms pub. Read more here: Uckfield's firefighting history - brigade gets horse-drawn steamer

We also report on Uckfield Town Council welcoming the idea of having speed cushions in New Road and how police are hunting vandals smashing windows at an Uckfield business park.
