OUTINGS AND TREATS.

—The children attending the Parish Church Sunday Schools had their annual outing on Friday to Worthing, while on the previous day the infants were entertained to tea and games at The Birches, the residence of Mrs. Simpson.

On Wednesday St. Mark’s scholars went to Littlehampton by special train, and on the previous Saturday the infants had their annual treat at the residence of Col. Farewell Jones. The weather was fine for each event, and the children spent a very enjoyable time.

There are three pairs of semi-detached houses on the right side, numbers 1 to 6, then a terrace of four houses, numbers 7 to 10, then three pairs of semi-detached houses on the left side, numbers 11 to 16. There is a public footpath through the terrace, between numbers 8 and 9, that leads to Western Road.

Number 1 has been converted into two flats. All have the postcode CR4 3ET.
