Preview:lf ever you want to discover England, then you should make a trip to Patching in West Sussex. On the lane leading to the village there is a sign that says 'village access only' so it gets no through traffic. Don't expect much there - a farm, a church and a collection of chocolate-box houses either with thatched roofs or made of flint with wisteria around the door. There's not even a pub! Maybe that very fact has enabled Patching to stay virtually frozen in time.
We made the trip to Patching because we knew I had relatives buried there, actually in the church (St John the Divine), beneath a double slab in the floor. I have seen several enquiries on various websites as to the origins of these BUSHBYs and I hope at least some of these people read this article because I am about to tell you all about them.
