Sea Heath, Frankenia laevis, was recognised for the first time, in the year 2000, on the fringes of Widewater Lagoon (now under water), in a area that had previously been fenced off to the public to protect the breeding area of the Ringed Plover. A large patch of this plant was discovered. This plant is very rare in Sussex known only from Rye Harbour, but it has possibly been missed on the fringes of salt-marshes.

It
has hardly stopped raining since the beginning of September. However, the
continual steady rain of the last 2 days is depressing. The 3 months of
rain have waterlogged the ground and built up the water table. The River
Adur is on flood alert.

*The
only people for me are the mad ones - the ones who are mad to live,
mad

the
ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like
fabulous yellow Roman candles.*

ADUR VALLEY EFORUM PAGE |
2 August
2000
The
Adur
Valley eForum covering all aspects of life in the Adur Valley commences.
You can join by spending a few minutes on the following site, and then
you can post messages on almost anything about life in Shoreham-by-sea
and the Adur Valley, including, Lancing, Sompting, Southwick, Steyning
and the smaller villages in the valley.
THE
BEST WAY TO JOIN THE
is to click on the link to the
logo, and register as a new member. Allow 10 minutes on-line, but the process should be much quicker.
Then you can go to the Adur Valley page and register to join.
The following choices will have to be made:
1) Receive mail in a daily bulletin.
2) Receive each EMail individually (this may result in too many EMails)
3)
Choose not to receive EMails, which means you can visit the web page to
choose what subjects look interesting. You can, also, just receive a list
of the subjects in a daily digest.
If
the latter applies, you will have to click on the menu item Messages.
These choices can be altered at a later date. They can also be altered by me, if you cannot work out how to do it.

- 54-45 BC First Roman invasion of Britain
- About 20 - 10 BC coins found in Shoreham were those minted in the reign of Tincommius, a Roman King [Rex}.
- By AD 44, this part of Sussex (before it was called Sussex) was ruled by Coggidumnus (probably a Roman) at the time of the second Roman invasion.
- (Both Tincommius & Coggidumnus were leaders of the Atrebates tribe with a power base centred in the south-east. By this time Coggidumnus was King [Rex] they were known as the Regnenses.)
Historical Snippets
Revised
Text
Romano-British settlements existed in Shoreham from about AD 100 to AD 250. Iron Age and Romano-British remains (pottery, skeletons, Samian water bottle, urn) have been found near Slonk Hill, NE of Buckingham Park, and at Kingston Buci (copper wire bracelet, skulls, quern stone). Roman coins (Constantine I brass) have been found in Shoreham. Remains of a Roman Villa have been discovered in what is now the town of Southwick to the east. Southwick appeared to be the important Roman centre (toponymy). A Roman road connected Chichester (Noviomagus Regnensium) to London (Londinium) and a branch went from Croydon to Southwick and the Adur Valley mouth (Shoreham). A 16 ft square Romano-Celtic temple was discovered on Lancing Down.
