HENFIELD THEN AND NOW

pinchnose green & the coronation oak

Pinchnose Green is a small triangle of grass at the junction of Church Street, Church Walk and Church Terrace, just to the side of the Cat House. The Coronation Oak was planted in 1902 to commemmorate the coronation of Edward VII, and stands on the Green - which takes its name from its original proximity to the foul-smelling tanneries.
