H&B title bid dented by defeat
H&B now lie six points adrift of top spot and look to be playing for second place and a play-off against the runners-up from the Kent League.
Despite enjoying a wealth of possession in the opening period H&B fell behind against the run of play to a breakaway try. Roger Stanley's men replied through Ben Campbell and soon after Paul Sandeman had a try controversially ruled out for a double movement.

Hide AdHonours were even until the final quarter when Uckfield went over for three successive scores. Although Steve McManus pulled one back, it was a case of too little, too late.
