A FAMILY'S possessions from a lifetime in Mid Sussex form the latest display at Cuckfield Museum.
The Jenners lived in their home in Cuckfield for over 80 years, buying the house in 1929 for just 507.

The museum's regular series of talks continues on Tuesday September 28 at 2.30pm with "Archive Films of Mid-Sussex" when Alan Readman, Assistant County Archivist at West Sussex Record Office presents films dating back to the pioneering days of cinematography in the mid 1890s up to the 1960s.
On Thursday November 18 the talk will be "The Secret Sussex Resistance Revisited" with Stewart Angell on the British Resistance in Sussex during the Second World War.
