Hi Teresa

That's not silly at all.  I must have been there in the past, because when I was a girl I remember going to a Fegan's Home near Heathfield with our church youth group for a bonfire night.

I went to a bretheren place in Hailsham but we used to meet us with the youth from various churches around and I think the Heathfield Congregational would have been one of them.
