Horsebridge Watermill, by E. W. Holden, published 1980 in Sussex Industrial History (No. 10, article, pp.27-30) accessible at: The Keep [LIB/506525] Download PDF
Abstract:In December 1965 excavations by JCB adjacent to and roughly parallel with the south-east side of McDougall's mill building at Horsebridge, in the parish of Hellingly, were in progress when a large piece of buried timber was encountered. This was lifted in one piece and placed on its side close to a nearby fence. The wet clay subsoil being unstable the trench was quickly refilled. From information given by the mill foreman the timber when found was lying with the trough uppermost at a depth of about 6½ feet from the surface (which would be at about the same level as the present mill pond), but whether this was the highest or lowest part of the timber - a matter of some 2½ ft - could not be determined.
Brick and Tilemaking on the Dicker in East Sussex, by M. Beswick, published 1983 in Sussex Industrial History (No. 13, article, pp.2-10) accessible at: The Keep [LIB/506525] Download PDF
Abstract:In the 18th and 19th centuries the manufacture of bricks and tiles expanded throughout Sussex, but on the Dicker Common, in the parishes of Chiddingly and Hellingly, this expansion amounted almost to an explosion. To discover the reason for this, two factors of particular importance must be considered: firstly, the suitability of the sub-soil, the Weald clay, and secondly, the fact that the area, being waste land, was not under cultivation and was therefore available for exploitation when the demand arose.
