The following information is
all gathered to help the genealogist in their search for ancestors who may
have resided in the parish of Salehurst. At present I'm just developing this
site and intend over the coming days, weeks, months and years to add more
and more.
Salehurst is situated 13 Miles
North of Hastings and 5 Miles south of the Kent border. The parish is bonded
by the parishes of Etchingham and Hawkhurst on the North and Brightling and
Burwash on the East. Also close by is the Parish of Mountfield. Until the
dissolution of the monastries the Parish contained Robertsbridge Abbey, remains
of which still to this day exist however they are only open to the public
occasionally and only the refectory wall survives although an undercroft of
thepresent day farmhouse is probably a part of the original Abbey.
If you have any information
regarding this parish which includes Robertsbridge and Northbridge Street
and would like to share it with others then feel free to email me details.
