- You cannot add "A History of Steyning Grammar School Out of Stock" to the basket because the product is out of stock.
Pretty much the only book on the history of Steyning, Bramber and Beeding, now back in print after being unavailable for a number of years - we have had a print run of 60 produced, so get one now or never!
Now in a paperback volume, with colour and black and white photographs and illustrations, the book traces the history of these three villages, whose present rural peace belies their history as a busy trading hub. Bustling river trade on the Adur combined with their position as centre of a thriving agricultural community, with markets, fairs, a castle, a priory, a great collegiate church and, by the 10th century, even a mint; all these made them places of importance in the Middle Ages.
Essential reading for all locals, past and present, and also of interest those just passing through!
