HISTORICAL EDENBRIDGE

Have you ever wondered how Edenbridge got its name ? . . .

when and how the town developed and who occupied some of its major buildings ?

This production traces the history of the town to its origins and takes the viewer through more than a thousand years of development to the present day.

Find out about the early settlers who grazed their pigs in the forests of the Weald, see inside some of the town's remarkable 14th, 15th and 16th century timber framed buildings, take a close look at some mediaeval wall paintings, and hear about the history of Haxted Mill, the Town's Mill, Taylour House, the Church and the Great Stone Bridge Trust - just a few of the fascinating topics covered in this 60 minute DVD. Also included is a film on the Great Storm of 1987 presented by Bob Ogley and the Big Freeze in January 1987. (Click on history for further information and to see clips on the storm and Big freeze)
