These are the articles/lists I have created from scratch. (Expansions or rewrites of existing articles are not recorded.) Some common themes emerge...

Note (mainly to me): a coloured background to the number means I have archived the URLs of all online references (or as many as possible) using the WebCite or Internet Archive services, which I urge all WP editors to use. I will not be archiving the following: National Heritage List for England entries which use the {{NHLE}} template; Oxford Dictionary of National Biography entries which use the {{ODNB}} template; entries from The London Gazette which use the {{London Gazette}} template; or entries from the online version of the Victoria County History of Sussex or other counties.

Second note: Featured lists that have appeared on the Main Page in the "Today's featured list" slot are denoted by a background colour all the way across the row.

#	Name	Date	Status	DYK?	Who? What? Where? When? Why?
1	National Location Code	28 June 2006			My first article was as dry as they get: technical railway jargon.
2	Ifield railway station	29 June 2006			Even in 2006, a few British station articles were missing ... I put together a quick article on this one in Crawley; a prelude to lots of Crawley-related activity later.
3	Shere SMART	13 July 2006			The first of a few articles about railway ticket issuing systems (one of my main interests), for which I also designed an infobox and template. Scary!
4	APTIS ticket features	26 July 2006			I didn't think this "guide" fitted in the main APTIS article (Britain's main ticket issuing system for 20 years), hence this separate article. I wouldn't write anything like this now.
5	Station group (railway)	31 July 2006			More complexity and rail jargon with a ticket slant. Used to have lots of images before they were deleted. Not much potential for expansion.
6	Network Railcard	17 August 2006			One of various discount schemes for rail travel in Britain. I'm quite pleased with the sourcing I found for this.
7	Concessionary fares on the British railway network	19 September 2006			Hefty, all-encompassing article covering all sorts of rail discounts—in an encyclopaedic, non-advertising way of course :)
8	Seven Dials, Brighton	19 November 2006			My Brighton and Hove obsession starts with a quick piece on a notable suburban area, augmented by some photos on a nice winter day.
9	Patcham	19 November 2006			Another area of Brighton, but with much more history than Seven Dials; this could benefit from expansion and pictures.
10	Ascom EasyTicket	27 November 2006			A ticket machine which has now been phased out in Britain after a few years of trying to establish itself in the competitive market place.
11	AJENTS	4 December 2006			Weird type of rail ticket which needs certain other articles to be written to give it context. Must remember to do that...
12	Ascom B8050 Quickfare	5 December 2006			The main type of self-service ticket machine used on Britain's rail network for about 15 years. Now extinct; good job I got some pics. There is one (from Reading) in the basement of the National Railway Museum though!
13	Shere FASTticket	14 December 2006			One of the two main replacements for the Ascom B8050 Quickfare, used by several Train Operating Companies.
14	Scheidt & Bachmann Ticket XPress	21 December 2006			Shere FASTticket's main competitor. This article needs work; there are squillions of these machines now (including 32 at London Waterloo, improbably). December 2013 update: that work has been undertaken!
15	Ditchling Beacon	27 December 2006			A complete change of direction to write about an important hill (actually a Marilyn) a good 2 hours' walk from my house.
16	New England Quarter	13 February 2007			My first proper "big" article, about a newly developed area of Brighton. Briefly a GA before being delisted; now a GA again. Unusually for one of my articles, almost all references are online, because it's such a new area and no books have been published about it.
17	St Bartholomew's Church, Brighton	1 March 2007			This gargantuan church has been called "internationally important", and you can tell why when you stand anywhere near it. Article needs some titivation.
18	St Paul's Church, Brighton	25 March 2007			The second Brighton and Hove church article I started is on a well-known early 19th-century building which stands firm amid the encroachment of car parks, nightclubs and bars on a main street in central Brighton.
19	St Nicholas' Church, Brighton	29 March 2007			The old parish church was the only building not to be destroyed in a 16th-century French raid, mainly because it was way up on the cliffs behind the village (as was).
20	St Martin's Church, Brighton	3 April 2007			Simon Jenkins likes the "Cathedral of the Back Streets", which stands out among the brightly painted and stuccoed houses of the Clifton Hill area.
21	St Michael's Church, Brighton	17 April 2007			Big landmark church on one of the main roads into the city.
22	16–25 Railcard	12 June 2007			Created to bypass a redirect. I'm too old for this Railcard now ... boo.
23	Senior Railcard	9 July 2007			An extremely popular discount card for older rail travellers. Quite a complex history.
24	Family and Friends Railcard	23 July 2007			The fourth of the major Railcard schemes. Loads of changes of price and conditions over the years, which I think I've summarised suitably.
25	St John the Baptist's Church, Hove	3 December 2007			Back into church "action" after quite a while spent in other areas of Wikipedia. Goodhart-Rendel said some very nasty things about this typical 19th-century edifice.
26	Church of the Annunciation, Brighton	4 December 2007			This is the most awkward church to photograph ever. Except the one in Moulsecoomb, maybe.
27	St Barnabas Church, Hove	4 December 2007			Ordinary sort of church near Hove station; its architect was underwhelmed by it. Perhaps slightly surprising that it has a Grade II* listing.
28	All Saints Church, Hove	5 December 2007			I had to avoid the wedding guests when photographing Hove's impressive parish church.
29	St George's Church, Brighton	15 January 2008			One of my favourite photos, and an interesting church to write about.
30	St Andrew's Church, Church Road, Hove	5 February 2008			What is its connection to Mount Everest...? It's quite surprising...
31	St Leonard's Church, Aldrington	15 February 2008			Thanks to Victuallers for finding a decent DYK hook about this unpromising church!
32	St John the Baptist's Church, Brighton	27 April 2008			A very early Roman Catholic church (Brighton's first, actually), and an unusual design for the denomination. A bit hemmed in by buildings and roads, sadly.
33	St Patrick's Church, Hove	17 May 2008			An important building in the city of Brighton and Hove, given its secondary function as a homeless shelter.
34	All Saints Church, Patcham	18 May 2008			One of many ancient village churches heavily restored by Victorian meddlers.
35	Bishop Hannington Memorial Church	23 May 2008			Pevsner liked this unusual modern church, which is a mixed blessing.
36	St Mary and St Abraam Coptic Orthodox Church, Hove	8 June 2008			Interesting tale of a redundant Anglican church bought by a different religious community.
37	St Margaret's Church, Rottingdean	20 June 2008			Classy village church with connections to lots of famous people.
38	French Protestant Church, Brighton	27 June 2008			A real curiosity: there's only one other in Britain. Dominated by surrounding buildings, sadly.
39	St Helen's Church, Hangleton	22 July 2008			An unexpected sight in the middle of a 1950s housing estate: an unrestored medieval church.
40	Chapel Royal, Brighton	8 August 2008			Elegant building right in the centre of Brighton, no longer a parish church but still in Anglican ownership and use. Comes with a good Prince Regent anecdote.
41	Stanmer Church	30 August 2008			Right on the edge of the city, in a huge park that was a private estate until quite recently, this interesting church has never had a dedication.
42	St Wulfran's Church, Ovingdean	4 September 2008			One of the ancient churches taken into Brighton territory by major boundary changes in the 1920s. The village still feels like it's in the middle of the Sussex countryside.
43	St Andrew's Church, Waterloo Street, Hove	16 September 2008			Fashionable, high-quality church which was thankfully preserved after its closure in 1990. Enough source material to expand this significantly, if I get a chance.
44	St Andrew's Church, Hove	16 September 2008			Two churches with the same name in the same place? Better create my first disambiguation page.
45	St Peter's Church, West Blatchington	27 September 2008			A funny sort of church with parts built in three completely different eras; nevertheless they fit well together.
46	St Nicolas Church, Portslade	23 October 2008			Good, solid medieval church which looks a lot like its contemporary at nearby Hangleton.
47	Listed buildings in Crawley	18 November 2008			Biggish, unfinished list of the Borough of Crawley's listed buildings (and the odd table tomb, mounting block, garden wall etc). Several more visits with the camera needed. A top priority for completion.
48	Beehive (Gatwick Airport)	18 November 2008			Incredibly important building in international aviation history; the design was inspired by a withering remark by the designer's father.
49	St John the Baptist's Church, Crawley	24 November 2008			Incoveniently hidden away between buildings, Crawley's parish church is quite interesting and has some mysterious carved faces on one wall.
50	St Margaret's Church, Ifield	3 December 2008			The only Talk page to contain the phrase "What the heck is an inimitable sideways sway?", I imagine. Not the prettiest Grade I listed building ever.
51	Ifield Friends Meeting House	12 December 2008			One of the oldest in the world; a simple, effective design, similar to many Nonconformist places of worship.
52	Tree House, Crawley	15 December 2008			Nice ex-council building, now falling into dereliction; surprisingly used to be Crawley's manor house many centuries ago.
53	St Michael and All Angels Church, Lowfield Heath	31 December 2008			Why is there a pleasant yellow-brick church standing in the middle of a load of warehouses and nondescript parking areas right next to Gatwick Airport's runway?...
54	Lowfield Heath	31 December 2008			...Because the village which surrounded it until the 1950s was cleared to make way for airport expansion.
55	St Luke's Church, Queen's Park, Brighton	18 January 2009			Back down to Brighton for a quick summary of a good-looking church with not a lot to say about it.
56	Old Punch Bowl	26 January 2009			In contrast, this Crawley pub has seen more change over the centuries than most buildings. I've exhausted the source material; not much gets written about Crawley.
57	Ifield Water Mill	2 February 2009			I wrote this article when I was snowed in under the heaviest snowfalls Sussex had seen for 18 years. I couldn't actually leave my house!
58	List of places of worship in Crawley	14 February 2009			With this manageably-sized list, I developed the model for similar lists I've done and will do in the future for other areas. This required plenty of research and a lot of walking around the neighbourhoods. Fun!
59	Church of the Transfiguration, Pyecombe	17 February 2009			The photo was taken on a New Year's Day post-party hangover-busting country walk. I knew I would write the article at some point. Happily, plenty of research material was available.
60	Tapsel gate	17 February 2009			This quirky article, featured in the DYK pictured slot, generated much comment; I'm glad others were intrigued as I was about these cleverly designed contraptions, unique to Sussex.
61	Crawley Hospital	20 February 2009			Dull but worthy article. Wikipedia's coverage of British hospitals is weak; it would be worth looking into.
62	Brighton Friends Meeting House	7 March 2009			The first of several expansions of material excised from the main List of places of worship in Brighton and Hove when it went from prose to list form.
63	Brighton Unitarian Church	8 March 2009			Striking building built by Amon Henry Wilds (q.v.). The sources indicate that the Prince Regent features prominently in the story, as usual!
64	Dorset Gardens Methodist Church	8 March 2009			I wondered whether to write this: the present building isn't listed and has no remarkable qualities, but the long history of older churches on the site justified a short article.
65	Pepper Pot, Brighton	8 March 2009			Typical Brighton eccentricity: a bizarre building surrounded by 19th-century houses. Nobody ever seems to know what to do with it; the council turned it into a public toilet for a while, for example.
66	Greek Orthodox Church of the Holy Trinity, Brighton	8 March 2009			Most of this article concentrates on the building's history as an Anglican church; sources on its present use are thin on the ground.
67	Holy Trinity Church, Brighton	14 March 2009			Important early 19th-century chapel; nothing to do with the Prince Regent for once. I'm pleased with the photo; the height of the tower and the crowded nature of Ship Street cause difficulties.
68	Middle Street Synagogue, Brighton	14 March 2009			I was lucky to get the picture when I did; it's covered in scaffolding now! There seems to be confusion over whether it is truly closed or not; more research needed here.
69	St Philip's Church, Hove	16 March 2009			Unexciting church on the way out to Portslade; still, it's notable, and the exterior is quite pleasant.
70	Holy Trinity Church, Hove	22 March 2009			Its future is uncertain, so I need to keep the article updated. Well-sited, but congregations have declined.
71	Chattri (Brighton)	23 March 2009			An unusual, well-designed war memorial high on the South Downs overlooking Brighton. I knew the story behind it, but the research was still enjoyable.
72	St Mary the Virgin, Brighton	31 March 2009			Vast, closure-threatened church; its predecessor (which suddenly collapsed one day!) was equally interesting.
73	Ramsgate Harbour railway station	3 April 2009			I spotted this redlink in a FAC when lurking there, and couldn't resist turning it blue.
74	Ramsgate Town railway station	3 April 2009			As with Ramsgate Harbour railway station, my railway book collection came in useful.
75	St John the Evangelist's Church, Preston Village, Brighton	4 April 2009			This was the first photo I ever took for the specific purpose of uploading to Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons. I took more than 2 years to get around to the article!
76	St Peter's Church, Preston Village, Brighton	4 April 2009			Written in conjunction with St John the Evangelist's, since their histories are intertwined.
77	Grade I listed buildings in Brighton and Hove	11 April 2009			Most of the photos were taken on a particularly sunny and warm Easter Monday. I need to work on the Kemp Town and Brunswick (Hove) articles before I can complete this.
78	List of places of worship in Mid Sussex	16 April 2009			Another church list, for my home district this time. More awkward than Crawley or B&H; a lot of the churches are way out in the countryside!
79	St Wilfrid's Church, Brighton	19 April 2009			Given that this 1930s church was closed because dangerous asbestos was found, I'm not sure how it was able to be converted into a sheltered housing complex fairly soon afterwards!
80	St Joseph's Church, Brighton	25 April 2009			Landmark Roman Catholic church, distinctive for its Kentish Ragstone exterior, at the bottom of the long, steep Elm Grove.
81	St Peter's Church, Aldrington	26 April 2009			Its main point of interest is the huge campanile, which dominates the surrounding area.
82	St Mary Magdalen's Church, Brighton	29 April 2009			Another quick expansion of some existing material from the main church list.
83	Hove Methodist Church	30 April 2009			Likewise, although more thorough research yielded some useful info.
84	Holland Road Baptist Church	4 May 2009			The church website had some useful historical info that was surprisingly absent from my book sources. Judicious use of both has created a suitably well-rounded history section, I hope.
85	Westdene	7 May 2009			Filled in an annoying redlink by scribbling a few paragraphs about this pleasant, bland Brighton suburb.
86	Church of the Good Shepherd, Brighton	7 May 2009			Enough coverage in third-party sources to justify an article, although not as much as I expected for a listed building.
87	St Stephen's Church, Brighton	19 May 2009			Another ex-church with a fascinating history (not least the bit where they moved it a mile across town!). This is one of those buildings where every photo you see will be taken from exactly the same angle.
88	Amon Henry Wilds	22 May 2009			Significant Brighton-based architect. Bio articles are not my strength—I barely edit them, let alone create them—so this was nerve-wracking. Plenty of scope for expansion.
89	Amon Wilds	22 May 2009			The father of the above, also an architect, has slightly less to write about. So many sources get Amon and Amon Henry mixed up, misattribute their works or just mention "Wilds"; these two were difficult to write and could contain inaccuracies.
90	Church of the Sacred Heart, Hove	23 May 2009			Straightforward expansion of previously written material once a couple more sources had been gathered.
91	St Augustine's Church, Brighton	4 June 2009			A closed church where not much ever happened; only justifies an article because of its listed status.
92	Union Chapel, Brighton	5 June 2009			Ancient building, now a well-known pub. There's loads of material out there about its pre-pub history. Terribly difficult to photograph.
93	Bristol Road Methodist Church	7 June 2009			Inconspicuous church near the Dorset Gardens Methodist Church; closed a few years ago, and gained listed status afterwards.
94	St Mark's Church, Brighton	7 June 2009			An oddly similar history to the Bristol Road church: built in the 19th century, served for over 100 years, closed, and now owned by a school. Those naughty rascals Pevsner and Goodhart-Rendel said some eyebrow-raising things about the architecture.
95	St Wilfrid's Church, Haywards Heath	17 June 2009			Haywards Heath's parish church. Had to write quite a bit of background about the town to put the church in context.
96	St Peter's Church, Ardingly	18 June 2009			As with many parish churches in Sussex, this pleasant stone church has lots of good-quality source material. Some scope for expansion.
97	St Richard's Church, Haywards Heath	1 July 2009			Quick, do this article before the library books are due back! Phew – just made it. One of Haywards Heath's two listed churches; a desire for "economy" led to some unusual design choices. Too wide to photograph properly.
98	St John the Evangelist's Church, Burgess Hill	2 July 2009			The town isn't noted for its stunning landscape or thrilling design (as its nickname, Bugs Hole, suggests), but the parish church is its main landmark, attractively placed at the end of the main shopping street.
99	List of places of worship in Adur	9 July 2009			Small, manageable district; on the way to my office; most churches are accessible by public transport; lots of source material available: a quick and satisfying list to compile.
100	Church of St Mary the Blessed Virgin, Sompting	12 July 2009			Very old parish church with a famous Germanic spire—the only one in England. Some exciting associations with the Knights Templar. Although it's several miles away across the fields, I can see it clearly from the video-conference room in my office.
101	St Julian's Church, Kingston Buci	16 July 2009			Paul "101 Medieval Churches of West Sussex" Coppin accurately describes "the modern world crowding in on" this feature-laden 11th-century church—home to an intriguing anchorite's cell (photogenic, but it's a good job the churchyard grass wasn't wet at the time...).
102	St Michael and All Angels Church, Southwick	21 July 2009			Just a pleasant stroll from the church above, this one is similarly ancient but in a less obvious way. Nice tower and lychgate.
103	St Mary de Haura Church, Shoreham-by-Sea	2 August 2009			Huge church associated with the medievally important south-coast harbour at Shoreham. Has had all sorts of praise and superlatives directed at it.
104	St Nicolas' Church, Shoreham-by-Sea	4 August 2009			The oldest bit of Shoreham(-by-Sea) is, er, not by the sea—it's inland, surrounding its church. Wacky carvings of moody-looking kings, cats etc. are found in the Norman interior.
105	Erringham chapel	5 August 2009			Crawley has a barn that is now a church, but here is a church that is now a barn. The never-very-big village of Old Erringham disappeared in medieval times, but bits of its chapel survive and are listed.
106	List of places of worship in Lewes District	12 August 2009			Another church list – surprise! A carefully compiled multi-coloured Excel spreadsheet full of research helped me compile this pretty quickly once I actually started.
107	Lewes Free Presbyterian Church	16 August 2009			The majority of Lewes district's churches are listed and therefore "need" articles. Here's the first, about a 200-year-old Nonconformist chapel with an unexpected present-day congregation.
108	Coombes Church	20 September 2009			Adur's only genuinely rural church is "folded into the South Downs" and has celebrated wall paintings, including a funny one (sounds familiar from nearby St Nicolas'!).
109	St Peter's Church, Shoreham-by-Sea	21 September 2009			The town's Roman Catholic church was closed in 1982 and quickly listed at Grade II—hence this article. Brief mention also made of the new church with the same dedication.
110	List of places of worship in Worthing	27 September 2009			The latest in the panoply of Sussex church lists. The borough has a very similar population to Crawley but many more religious buildings, reflecting its longer history I suppose.
111	St James the Less Church, Lancing	2 October 2009			One of the only ancient buildings in the small town of Lancing (or is it a large village?). Close to the Downs, like nearby Coombes Church.
112	St Andrew's Church, West Tarring	9 October 2009			Tall-spired, rather pleasant church in a very old part of Worthing, right next to some tennis courts (!?). One of only eight Grade II* buildings in the borough.
113	Ancient Priors	14 October 2009			Back up to Crawley (I couldn't keep away) to write about a very old building with some very interesting tales. A plethora of available sources include a recent in-depth historical and archaeological investigation.
114	Devil's door	16 October 2009			Quick little article about a feature of some ancient church buildings, written for the DYK Hallowe'en selection. These doors are strangely common in Sussex...
115	St Mary's Church, Walberton	18 October 2009			Another one for the DYK Hallowe'en selection: a West Sussex church with a very morbid tombstone (with a pic).
116	White Hart Inn, Crawley	4 November 2009			Another of Crawley's old, listed coaching inns, built as a direct replacement for the Ancient Priors (q.v.).
117	Transport in Worthing	10 November 2009			For some mad reason, I have decided to try to knock Worthing into shape (the article, not the town). This means maintaining summary style by creating lots of subsidiary articles. This is the first...
118	Listed buildings in Worthing	15 November 2009			An enormous list (partly because of all the references) of every listed building in the borough: lamp-posts, pubs, war memorials and the rest of it. Appears on Special:Longpages, worryingly.
119	Public services in Worthing	19 November 2009			Again, I expanded a section in the Worthing article enough to justify a separate subarticle. This covers stuff from police to drainage.
120	List of royal visits to Worthing	26 November 2009			Worthing enjoyed a lot of royal patronage in its early days. Decent sources are available for this topic, surprisingly, so I have had a go at it.
121	St George's Church, Worthing	30 November 2009			Pleasant mid-Victorian brick church in the east of the town. I can see the roof (and spirelet) from my desk at work.
122	Worthing Tabernacle	7 December 2009			An Evangelical chapel housed in an impressive listed building. The strange-shaped shadow on the picture is the cupola of the town hall.
123	St Mary's Church, Goring-by-Sea	8 December 2009			This church, surprisingly difficult to photograph, is equally surprisingly listed at Grade II*, given its dull exterior appearance (or "disappointingly limp", as Nairn and Pevsner moaned).
124	Fountain Inn, Ashurst	14 December 2009			A listed building just "down the road", with a Christmas connection which made it a good candidate for a festive DYK nomination.
125	Beach House Park, Worthing	18 December 2009			Small, ornamental garden in Worthing with two unusual features: it's "the home of bowls" and the site of a (unique?) war pigeon memorial.
126	Maritime history of Worthing	21 December 2009			Wide-ranging article covering various topics relating to Worthing and the sea (including the smelly seaweed).
127	Listed buildings in Adur	3 January 2010			Nowhere near as many buildings to photograph, write about etc. as in Worthing, but still quite a few (119, in fact). I photographed about 30 on an unusually sunny New Years Day.
128	St Andrew's Church, Worthing	5 January 2010			Unrelated to the church of the same dedication in nearby West Tarring, this one was the subject of much controversy and teeth-gnashing when it opened.
129	St Botolph's Church, Heene	6 January 2010			The "somewhat scanty" (!) remains of the old church stand next to its Victorian replacement in this residential area of Worthing. Both are listed.
130	Vintners Parrot	9 January 2010			A pub notable for being our de facto after-work socialising venue occupying two 1830s listed buildings of wildly different style in the oldest part of Worthing.
131	St Symphorian's Church, Durrington	9 January 2010			Another Worthing-area church which, like others, experienced decline then rapid revitalisation. I need a better pic though...
132	Tinsley Green, West Sussex	12 January 2010			A rather interesting area on the outskirts of Crawley. Will they build the fabled "14th neighbourhood" there?... Twelve years after the first planning application, we still don't know... (April 2010 update: we now know they won't...) (2015 update: oh yes they will!)
133	Brewery Shades	21 January 2010			Yet another timber-framed open hall house in Crawley, although you can't tell from the outside. Is the toilet still haunted...?
134	Broadfield House, Crawley	25 January 2010			This attractive villa has housed everything from the New Town Development Corporation to Mercury FM's studios (who remembers Steve Hyland on the Breakfast Show...?).
135	Grade II* listed buildings in Brighton and Hove	31 January 2010			Back down to Brighton (and Hove, "actually"...) for some listed buildings action, after I finally got most of the remaining photos.
136	Royal Albion Hotel	4 February 2010			Here's an article for one of them: a well-known landmark hotel on the seafront, fully recovered from its 1998 mishap.
137	Royal Crescent, Brighton	7 February 2010			Here's another: not as famous as Bath's version, but with several interesting/morbid facts.
138	Mathematical tile	7 February 2010			Royal Crescent is built with these, as are several other buildings in Brighton, Lewes and elsewhere (including 44 Old Steine, Brighton, where the close-up pic was taken).
139	9 Pool Valley, Brighton	8 February 2010			Grade II* and mathematical-tiled: "Ye Olde Bunn Shoppe" (to give it its former name) was a predictable choice for my next article...
140	Patcham Place	8 February 2010			...as was this ex-Youth Hostel, which also has Grade II* status and mathematical tiles in common. Shame it's currently empty.
141	Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony, Crawley	27 February 2010			Crawley's first Roman Catholic church was rebuilt by Harry Stuart Goodhart-Rendel ... remember him from earlier?! It was listed less than 50 years later—a rare feat.
142	West Street Baptist Church, East Grinstead	2 March 2010			More sources than expected for this modest, Grade II-listed chapel, so I wrote more than I anticipated. Its bicentenary is later this year.
143	Red Lion Inn, Shoreham-by-Sea	10 March 2010			Fairly old listed pub in the old bit of Shoreham. I had a very nice lunch (and pint) there while out photographing the town's listed buildings, thanks for asking.
144	Holy Trinity Church, Cuckfield	21 March 2010			From long, low pubs to long, low churches, and a huge article which could be expanded still further if I get a chance to write about the extensive collection of monuments and memorials inside.
145	St Mary's Church, Slaugham	25 March 2010			Another old church in the middle of the Sussex Weald, supplemented by some nice images from Geograph (my flying visit to Slaugham was only long enough to allow a couple of exterior shots).
146	List of places of worship in Eastbourne	29 March 2010			List #7 in the series of places of worship in Sussex by district takes in the only small, straightforward one left.
147	Hangleton Manor Inn	18 April 2010			Another old Sussex pub with alleged hauntings ... this time involving pigeons, superbly. The ancient manor house has only been an inn for a few decades, in fact.
148	Providence Strict Baptist Chapel, Burgess Hill	20 April 2010			I suddenly decided to write about...
149	Zion Chapel, Newick	20 April 2010			...a load of former Baptist chapels in Sussex...
150	Ebenezer Particular Baptist Chapel, Hastings	20 April 2010			...all of which are Grade II listed...
151	Rehoboth Chapel, Pell Green	21 April 2010			...and many of which are in tiny, obscure places...
152	Shover's Green Baptist Chapel	21 April 2010			...which means raiding Geograph's archive for photos...
153	Providence Chapel, Hadlow Down	21 April 2010			...where the alternative is walking 4 miles down an A-road from the nearest station...
154	Rye Particular Baptist Chapel	22 April 2010			...or taking a really long train journey...
155	Southover General Baptist Chapel	22 April 2010			...but this one was easy enough to photograph, albeit standing in the middle of a road.
156	List of places of worship in Hastings	7 May 2010			Yet more photography for this one: 69 buildings taken in just two visits, both in very sunny weather. In April!
157	Christ Church, Ore	8 May 2010			The second individual church article for that borough (after Ebenezer, written during the Baptist Chapel Marathon®) includes some more daftness from Pevsner.
158	Holy Trinity Church, Hastings	9 May 2010			Probably the best church in Hastings, architecturally, and one of the most difficult to photograph.
159	Hastings Fishermen's Museum	9 May 2010			That's its current name, but this modest sandstone building on the beach was a chapel for nearly a century.
160	Church in the Wood, Hollington	10 May 2010			I got horribly lost in said Wood trying to find this church, so it is appropriately named.
161	Northern Glass Cone, Alloa Glass Works	16 May 2010			A surprising deviation to central Scotland for a listed building; the article was written in conjunction with a DYK nomination.
162	St Leonards-on-Sea Congregational Church	29 May 2010			A rather nice "landmark" church in that part of Hastings, now closed and suffering structural deterioration unfortunately.
163	St Luke's Church, Silverhill	31 May 2010			Not a listed building, although it probably could be. This United Reformed Church suffered the same fate as its near-neighbour during the Great Storm of 1987: the spires blew off both churches.
164	St Matthew's Church, Silverhill	1 June 2010			Big, pleasant church on a sloping site (typical of Hastings); the design is so similar to St Barnabas Church, Hove that it won't be a surprise to find that the same man did both.
165	Clock Tower, Brighton	2 June 2010			One of the most famous landmarks in the city, especially if you're giving people directions—but it's the curious architecture we're interested in here.
166	Wykeham Terrace, Brighton	14 June 2010			One of Brighton's many early 19th-century high-class residential developments, but somewhat out of leftfield architecturally.
167	French Convalescent Home, Brighton	14 June 2010			The city is full of surprises, and here's another: a French Government-sponsored rest home on the seafront, which only closed down in 2000. It's now pricey luxury flats.
168	Western Pavilion	15 June 2010			Yet another eccentric building in Sussex's most architecturally outrageous place (no, not Crawley...); this one was Amon Henry Wilds's own house.
169	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: A–B	16 June 2010			There are far too many Grade II buildings in the city to cram into one list (think of the references section...!), so after much thought I have split it into 10 lists by building name. Here's the first ... now can I photograph them all?!
170	11 Dyke Road, Brighton	17 June 2010			Another of the city's strange, characterful buildings ... this used to be a school, but in its 40-odd year career as a nightclub it has had at least seven names. Hmm...
171	Park Crescent, Brighton	20 June 2010			Important large-scale development by that man Amon Henry Wilds again, on the site of a bizarre "pleasure garden".
172	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: C–D	21 June 2010			The second part of the byte-gobbling list includes such delights as cemetery chapels, drinking fountains and a couple of dovecots.
173	Steine House	26 June 2010			More Prince Regent-related hilarity in this building opposite his Royal Pavilion; it was his illegal wife's house.
174	List of demolished places of worship in Brighton and Hove	22 July 2010			A combination of sources, including one book specifically on this subject, helped me research this quite quickly. Many churches were lost in the 1960s, predictably.
175	Regency Square, Brighton	29 July 2010			Excellent architectural set-piece on the seafront, which improbably hides a 500-space multi-storey car park under its central garden. That bit certainly wasn't built by Amon Henry Wilds...
176	Bungaroosh	2 August 2010			Crazy alleged "building material" ("fragile" and "low-quality" are understatements) encountered frequently in that most eccentric of places, Brighton. Brilliant name as well.
177	Brighton Forum	2 August 2010			A nice Gothic building (unusual for Brighton) with three varied uses over the years.
178	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: E–H	8 August 2010			And there's more ... several churches, a couple of banks and suchlike are included in this list.
179	Van Alen Building	12 August 2010			Classy piece of modern architecture on the seafront of ... guess the city. This is what they call "high-end real estate" (i.e. pricey flats).
180	Freemasons Tavern, Hove	12 August 2010			This splendidly decorated pub along Western Road has an eye-catching lavatory installation (!?), but wouldn't you rather look at the intricate mosaic exterior?
181	Pelham Institute	11 September 2010			An article was started on prolific local architect Thomas Lainson, prompting me to write about some of his Brighton and Hove buildings—such as this working men's club in the middle of Kemptown...
182	75 Holland Road, Hove	11 September 2010			...and this former furniture repository near the Baptist church. Both of these stylish buildings have been converted into flats.
183	Barford Court, Hove	24 September 2010			Yet another of the many quirkily intriguing buildings in the city: a futuristic (for the 1930s), high-spec home-for-a-millionaire, who only lived in it for a few years. Uses since then have been healthcare-related.
184	List of conservation areas in Brighton and Hove	27 September 2010			Unsurprisingly, 34 such areas have been designated in the city, from the modest and extremely urban to the expansive and mostly rural.
185	Carlton Hill, Brighton	1 October 2010			This is one of those areas found in every city, where you say its name and people look at you blankly, but when you name some of its landmarks they say "oh, there". NB. This observation is original research.
186	Preston Manor, Brighton	3 October 2010			A very important, ancient manor house on the outskirts of Brighton. Now a museum, it is home to numerous ghosts, it is said... including a disembodied hand. Ooh!
187	All Saints Church, Buncton	14 October 2010			Delightful rural chapel down the road, featuring the remarkable story of a bizarre (and rather rude) carving and how it met its fate.
188	All Saints Church, Highbrook	23 October 2010			Quick article on a large, attractive church in a Mid Sussex hamlet which is very small indeed. (And surrounded by muddy fields.)
189	Amex House	23 October 2010			The European headquarters of American Express is a wedding cake-resembling edifice in Carlton Hill (q.v.). Unsurprisingly, it is nicknamed "The Wedding Cake".
190	British Engineerium	24 October 2010			This much-loved Hove landmark and important industrial museum has been closed for years, but should reopen eventually. Good job I was around for the rare open day...
191	List of places of worship in Wealden	29 October 2010			Another Sussex district, and another vast list of its churches and chapels. More than 60 have listed status, impressively. February 2012 update: split for size reasons. See below!
192	St Mark's Church, Hadlow Down	13 November 2010			This is one of those 60-plus referred to above. Built to plug the huge gap in Anglican church provision between Buxted and Mayfield, it had to be rebuilt after spire-related problems.
193	Central Methodist Church, Eastbourne	21 November 2010			A couple of in-depth library books helped me describe the story of the town's largest and most important Methodist church. It's certainly the tallest as well.
194	Brighton Hippodrome	1 December 2010			One of the Grade II*-listed buildings in B&H I had been planning to write about for ages. So many notable people appeared here that one paragraph looks like a wall of blue.
195	All Saints Church, Roffey	20 December 2010			The Victorian parish church of this Horsham suburb comes with an odd anecdote about a dead swan, of all things.
196	St John the Baptist's Church, Clayton	23 December 2010			Time to write about my local Saxon church, finally. The distinctive wall murals have been very well preserved.
197	Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Warminghurst	30 December 2010			Writing about this now closed church benefits three lists: Grade I's in West Sussex, CCT churches in the South East, and Horsham district's churches (which I'm about to start!).
198	St Mary the Virgin's Church, North Stoke	30 December 2010			Here's another in deepest Sussex, on what I call the far side of Horsham district ... again it appears/will appear on all three of those lists.
199	Round Hill, Brighton	2 January 2011			A populous, interesting suburb of Brighton which unaccountably had no article! Time to change that...
200	Roundhill Crescent	4 January 2011			...and it also felt appropriate to give more detail on its architectural centrepiece, which has a place in English medical history.
201	Jarvis Hall, Steyning	17 February 2011			I've been concentrating on researching/writing a huge piece in "real life" recently, so WP articles have been on hold. I found a useful book in Worthing reference library though...
202	Steyning Methodist Church	17 February 2011			...which powered these two little articles about the former and present places of Methodist worship in this ancient Sussex village (or small town, arguably).
203	List of places of worship in Horsham (district)	20 March 2011			I finally had some time to put together this lengthy list of churches and a mosque in this large, mostly rural area of West Sussex.
204	Madina Mosque, Horsham	25 March 2011			Built in 1857 for Strict Baptists, this neat little building became Horsham's first mosque in its 152nd year of existence.
205	Cemeteries and crematoria in Brighton and Hove	25 March 2011			Lengthy article about the fascinating history of the city's cems, crems and churchyards, with odd tales and lots of atmospheric photos.
206	St Mary Magdalene's Church, Tortington	10 April 2011			Fascinating ex-church in the flat countryside near Arundel, with fearful, bulging-eyed carvings staring down at you from the chancel arch.
207	St John the Evangelist's Church, Chichester	29 April 2011			One of many intriguing places of worship (well, now a former place of worship) in the small but church-filled city of Chichester (or "Chi" as we sometimes call it here in Sussex).
208	Billingshurst Unitarian Chapel	1 May 2011			One of the oldest of the many interesting, humble Nonconformist chapels in Sussex.
209	St Leonard's Baptist Church, St Leonards-on-Sea	2 May 2011			Exactly a year ago, I had a week where I frenziedly wrote about a series of churches in Hastings...
210	St Mary Magdalene's Church, St Leonards-on-Sea	2 May 2011			...and by coincidence the same has happened during 2011.
211	Church of St Thomas of Canterbury and English Martyrs, St Leonards-on-Sea	3 May 2011			Ooh, this article has a long name.
212	St John the Evangelist's Church, St Leonards-on-Sea	5 May 2011			The thing is, St Leonards-on-Sea has so many high-quality, listed churches...
213	Christ Church, St Leonards-on-Sea	6 May 2011			...they just have to be written about.
214	St Peter's Church, St Leonards-on-Sea	7 May 2011			Even this one, which didn't excite me at all when I visited to photograph it. It's Grade II*-listed, proving me wrong!
215	St Wilfrid's Chapel, Church Norton	12 May 2011			Another Sussex oddity: most of this building was moved about 2 miles to the centre of Selsey in the 1860s, leaving just the chancel—which was then rededicated as a chapel. Kipling used it in a poem, too.
216	List of places of worship in Arun	22 May 2011			The 11th district out of Sussex's 13 is done ... where shall I do next? Surrey? Kent? London?...
217	Littlehampton Friends Meeting House	26 May 2011			Formerly a school, and situated behind a rather tall wall. Luckily there was a similar wall on the other side of the street for me to stand on and photograph it.
218	Angmering Baptist Church	26 May 2011			This article covers the old and new churches of that description in the village of that name.
219	Trinity Congregational Church, Arundel	26 May 2011			A very elegant building in the town centre, although Ian Nairn moaned about it being "not good". Typical! It's now an indoor market.
220	Bailiffscourt Chapel	26 May 2011			Now used mainly for wedding blessings for people who get married at the adjacent luxury hotel, and indeed there were rose petals scattered around on the day of my visit.
221	Christ Church, Hastings	31 May 2011			To cause maximum confusion, the borough of Hastings has three churches of this name. Time for a disambiguation page...
222	Greatham Church	26 June 2011			A nice obscure church out in the fields near Amberley Wild Brooks. Enough material out there for a quick article. Surprisingly it's in Horsham district.
223	Horsham Unitarian Church	4 July 2011			Staying in that district, here's a small, homely chapel which has survived for nearly 300 years and inspired the founding of Billingshurst Unitarian Chapel (q.v.)
224	Robertsbridge United Reformed Church	7 July 2011			Thomas Elworthy, its architect, is "often maligned" (I quote)—and Nairn and Pevsner certainly didn't have any kind words to say about this chapel he provided in Robertsbridge in 1881.
225	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: M	17 July 2011			I avoided the L section for now (too many listed lamp-posts ... boring!) and skipped to the "M"s, which includes all the lovely stuccoed buildings on Marine Parade, inter alia.
226	Stag Inn, Hastings	1 August 2011			I dropped in here for a pint in the knowledge that there were two mummified cats hanging from the wall ... an interesting photo opportunity! It's an ancient listed building, needless to say.
227	List of places of worship in Rother	12 August 2011			I used Hastings as a base for a few days so that I could travel round Rother, the rural district which surrounds it, and photograph its array of churches ... which I then wrote about here.
228	List of demolished places of worship in East Sussex	3 September 2011			Following the example of the equivalent Brighton and Hove list (q.v.), here are details about the 60-odd churches and chapels which have vanished in the eastern part of Sussex.
229	List of demolished places of worship in West Sussex	3 September 2011			And I don't leave out West Sussex ... churches have disappeared from Crawley down to Chichester, and I have sought the details and the coordinates.
230	Bethel Strict Baptist Chapel, Robertsbridge	10 September 2011			An architectural contrast to the showiness of the other Nonconformist chapel on the village High Street, this recently closed chapel was founded by a very interesting character.
231	Cox & Barnard	24 September 2011			A slight departure from my usual themes, as I write about a stained glass designer? – Not really, because they are based in Hove and most of their work is in Sussex churches.
232	St Mary's Church, Hampden Park, Eastbourne	25 September 2011			A nice, undemonstrative 1950s church in suburban Eastbourne. Similarities with Bishop Hannington Memorial Church in Hove (q.v.) are inevitable: the architect is the same. He did the church in Saltdean too.
233	Bethel Strict Baptist Chapel, Wivelsfield	3 October 2011			Not "technically" started by me, but another user used some pre-prepared stuff from one of my sandboxes to start an article on this interesting chapel...
234	Ditchling Unitarian Chapel	4 October 2011			...which was formed when various members seceded from this rather elegant (originally Baptist) chapel in the 18th century.
235	Jubilee Library, Brighton	10 October 2011			Back to Brighton for another of its exciting buildings; this is one of its most recent, but is already a landmark which has got various commentators and architectural historians all excited.
236	John Leopold Denman	28 October 2011			A very productive architect who spent all his life in Brighton and designed an awful lot of stylish buildings in the city.
237	Brighton Wheel	29 October 2011			The new tourist attraction that everyone is talking about in the city (and photographing, apparently). It entered service 5 days before I wrote this article.
238	20–22 Marlborough Place, Brighton	30 October 2011			This is one of JLD's plethora of buildings: a good example of his characteristic Neo-Georgian style. Nice carvings as well.
239	Bilsham Chapel	28 November 2011			This has not been in religious use since the 16th century, but is still marked as a "Chapel" on maps (in that funny font they use for ancient sites, antiquities and suchlike). Now it's somebody's house.
240	Montpelier, Brighton	29 November 2011			One of Brighton's oldest and most important suburbs: easily significant enough to justify several thousand words and a series of photos of buildings and suchlike.
241	Hounsom Memorial Church	24 December 2011			By odd coincidence, this Denman-designed United Reformed church is a short walk from the city of Brighton and Hove's other "XXX Memorial Church".
242	Montpelier Crescent	26 December 2011			Quite a well-known crescent of houses in Brighton (one of many crescents there, of course) ... shame it's so difficult to photograph.
243	Vernon Terrace, Brighton	26 December 2011			Less familiar is the plainer (but still quite pleasant) set of houses opposite, which blocked the crescent's extensive views. Bet the early residents were delighted!
244	St Leonard's Church, St Leonards-on-Sea	29 December 2011			The parish church of this church-filled town is still in use, despite various mishaps over the years.
245	Clayton & Black	30 December 2011			As an extraordinarily prolific firm of architects who worked exclusively in Brighton and Hove, it was no surprise that I would get round to writing a hefty (and heavily illustrated) article.
246	Gwydyr Mansions	1 January 2012			Some of their more notable efforts also get treated to their own articles...
247	First Church of Christ, Scientist (Brighton)	1 January 2012			This was a C&B conversion rather than a new-build, but they did a good job; it used to be a house.
248	163 North Street, Brighton	1 January 2012			General consensus states that this eye-catching city-centre office is their best building. I'm tempted to agree!
249	155–158 North Street, Brighton	2 January 2012			This one isn't bad either, especially now it's been prettified again and reopened as a pub.
250	List of former places of worship in Wealden	29 January 2012			At its full size, the Wealden list was too long and unwieldy...
251	List of current places of worship in Wealden	29 January 2012			...so I made the obvious split: "open" churches in one article, and disused ones in another.
252	King and Queen, Brighton	4 February 2012			An eccentrically distinctive Mock Tudor city-centre pub with a long and very interesting history–and another in the long list of Clayton & Black's local works.
253	St Mary Magdalene's Church, Bolney	22 February 2012			Nearly 3 years after taking the photos at this pleasant, large Mid Sussex church, I get round to writing a pretty in-depth article about it, using my wide range of Sussex-ish sources.
254	St Margaret's Church, West Hoathly	25 February 2012			Here's another high-quality rural Sussex church with a nice range of early spring pictures, this time from 2010.
255	List of current places of worship in Chichester (district)	3 March 2012			Months of preparation went into compiling a spreadsheet that enabled me to write this huge list comparatively quickly. More pics to come: I hope to spend a few days in the area wandering around and taking photos.
256	St Leodegar's Church, Hunston	10 March 2012			One of Arthur Blomfield's many Sussex churches: a replacement for a derelict medieval one. Pevsner didn't like it.
257	All Souls Church, Hastings	10 March 2012			He was happier about this huge red-brick building of 1890, now unfortunately redundant and awaiting a new use. This has been called one of Blomfield's best.
258	List of former places of worship in Chichester (district)	28 March 2012			More than 50 buildings of all flavours are covered here, all with a nice explanatory paragraph but not all with a pic yet ... time for a photography trip, I think!
259	List of places of worship in Chichester (district)	31 March 2012			For the sake of completeness, here's a dab page pulling the "current" and "former" lists together. Now every Sussex district is completed, but plenty remain in other counties!
260	St George's Church, Eastergate	16 April 2012			One of Sussex's many pleasantly ancient rural(ish) churches, with some singular features and plenty of source material.
261	Crawley Development Corporation	7 May 2012			A diversion back to Crawley to document its important and influential Development Corporation, which determined its New Town growth and layout. A surprisingly interesting subject!
262	List of places of worship in Tunbridge Wells (borough)	28 May 2012			Having finished Sussex's churches, chapels and meeting rooms, I could go west (Hampshire), north (Surrey) or east (Kent). Being easy to get to and full of interesting buildings to photograph, Tunbridge Wells in Kent seemed like a good choice.
263	St Giles' Church, Horsted Keynes	15 July 2012			Yet another of the wide range of attractive ancient churches in Mid Sussex, with a lot of interesting burials. Shame it was locked on the day of my photographic visit.
264	List of places of worship in Tonbridge and Malling	17 August 2012			A little way beyond the borough of Tunbridge Wells is this pleasant area of Kent—the subject of my second places of worship list for that county. Next will come Sevenoaks: a three-day trip to the area allowed me to photograph most churches in both areas.
265	Places of Worship Registration Act 1855	21 August 2012			Before that, though, my current enthusiasm for analysing the registering and de-registering of places of worship led me to write this much-needed short article.
266	Henry Phillips (horticulturist)	24 August 2012			A productive Bank Holiday weekend started with a rare biography article from me: this poor chap's outrageous building scheme in Hove went disastrously wrong. Circeus found some extra sources and stuff – cheers!
267	Anthaeum, Hove	24 August 2012			This was the project in question: a botanical garden under the world's largest dome. Sadly, it was built without a central supporting pillar (not Mr Phillips' fault, I must add). An epic fail ensued.
268	Palmeira Square	25 August 2012			This unfortunate event in Hove's history did allow the attractive Palmeira Square to be built, though. Sussex University students will be familiar with it as the place where the 25 bus terminates.
269	Listed buildings in Eastbourne	4 November 2012			A reasonably big project which had been brewing/going mouldy in a sandbox for a long time, I finally decided to launch this after getting most of the remaining photos over the course of two sunny Saturdays in October.
270	List of places of worship in Sevenoaks (district)	11 November 2012			As promised above under the Tonbridge and Malling list, the neighbouring district of Sevenoaks was next on the Kentish agenda. Incidentally the entire list was copied (table formatting and all!) to form a 13-page appendix to a planning application for the demolition of Dunton Green Free Church!
271	Montefiore Hospital, Hove	19 December 2012			A shortish Brighton and Hove-ish article featuring yet another Clayton & Black building, under development in a sandbox for a few weeks since its transformation into a hospital (it was originally a furniture depository).
272	Moulsecoomb Place	21 December 2012			Another Brighton building article—one of the many to include some Prince Regent lunacy (actually, that bit applies to the now demolished dovecote in the grounds). The pleasant 18th-century mansion now accommodates some administrative functions of the University of Brighton.
273	The Keep, Brighton	23 December 2012			The pre-Christmas frenzy of articles about Brighton-area buildings continues with this new archive and historical record centre, still under construction on the edge of the city near the universities. It turns out that £19.142 million buys you an awful lot of storage space.
274	Airlink (helicopter shuttle service)	2 January 2013			A new topic area for a new year—but there is Crawley relevance, as this "curious and unique" helicopter service ran from Gatwick Airport to Heathrow with some success until its demise in 1986.
275	Locally listed buildings in Crawley	10 February 2013			There are 58 of these in the architecturally much-maligned town, as well as 102 nationally listed buildings ... but there were 59 until this one met a bulldozer. Most of the pics were taken on two winter Saturdays (winter = no leaves on trees = clearer views of buildings).
276	Ralli Hall	6 March 2013			Its centenary is imminent, so here is a long-planned (and longer than expected) article about a nice building in Hove that I have to walk past very regularly. Time for some more photos, maybe?...
277	Fernhill, West Sussex	21 March 2013			An obscure corner of Crawley borough, albeit only since 1990 when boundary changes removed it from Surrey. The hamlet was the site of a horrendous plane crash whose article I expanded at the same time.
278	Dyers Almshouses	25 March 2013			A quadrangle of interesting buildings near Crawley town centre (although not easy to find!). They are locally listed, and also appear on the article I wrote immediately afterwards...
279	List of conservation areas in Crawley	25 March 2013			...which is a timely contribution to the 'pedia, because the number of conservation areas is due to increase from 8 to 13 in April—assuming the new areas are ratified, that is! 15 April 2013 comment: And indeed they were... The conservation areas range from the obvious (Worth) to the surprising (the Sunnymead flats in West Green).
280	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: I–L	19 May 2013			Huge numbers of telephone booths and lamp-posts in this fifth B&H Grade II list, but some "proper" buildings as well—including a couple of well-known pubs.
281	List of places of worship in Tandridge (district)	13 June 2013			My first foray into Surrey, places-of-worship-list-wise, took a long time to plan using one of those infamous spreadsheets (see #106, #255), but only five trips were needed to get the photos. Efficient!
282	Goodwyns	15 July 2013			Visiting this 1960s council estate in Dorking for church photography reasons, I was intrigued by Pevsner's epic praise for its layout and housing stock, so I dug up enough other material for a small article.
283	List of places of worship in Mole Valley	24 July 2013			Here's the next instalment in the series of Surrey places of worship lists. The vast majority of photos were taken in the famously hot, sunny month of July 2013.
284	Providence Chapel, Charlwood	25 July 2013			Situated in that part of Mole Valley which is nearest to the Sussex border (and conveniently close to Crawley) is this remarkable building with an intriguing backstory. It's up for sale; hopefully somebody will buy and restore it!
285	Astoria Theatre, Brighton	30 July 2013			Its days as a prestigious "super-cinema" are long gone, and this distinctive Art Deco building may not be standing for much longer ... permission to demolish it has been granted.
286	Royal Pavilion Tavern	1 August 2013			Another Grade II-listed building in central Brighton ... oddly, it was used as the town's court on a couple of occasions in the 19th century.
287	List of places of worship in Reigate and Banstead	7 August 2013			On the whole, not such bright and sunny photos in Surrey list #3: it always drizzles when I go to Redhill or Reigate (or on one memorable occasion, I get soaked by a monsoon-style summer thunderstorm). Banstead itself was nice and summery though.
288	List of places of worship in Epsom and Ewell	17 August 2013			Staying in Surrey for now, here's a tour of the 30-odd places of worship in the county's smallest borough. There aren't many with listed status...
289	Bugby Chapel	19 August 2013			...but one of them is this splendidly-named building which had a 215-year career as a place of worship (it's now a stylish office). The Rev. Bugby for whom it was named was the founder; he was influenced by the famous/infamous William Huntington (see here for more on him!).
290	Adelaide Crescent	2 October 2013			A long-planned article about one of Hove's most famous developments—both architecturally and in terms of the panoply of people who lived there.
291	Public services in Crawley	5 October 2013			About as exciting as the equivalent article about Worthing (q.v.), but good if you like photos of sewage works and fire stations.
292	Gothic House	7 October 2013			An interesting but sadly dilapidated early Wilds and Busby building in central Brighton, researched and written following a suggestion by Zigzig20s.
293	Whitehawk Hill transmitting station	26 October 2013			A short article with a long title; not just a Brighton article, but the only remaining redlink among English transmitting stations.
294	Marine Gate, Brighton	27 October 2013			Staying on the east side of Brighton, here's a block of luxury flats: praised by some but greatly disliked by Anthony Seldon (unsurprisingly, as he isn't a fan of the similar Embassy Court).
295	Norfolk Hotel, Brighton	8 November 2013			The latest of several informal collaborations with Zigzig20s is this article documenting the interesting history and pleasing architecture of one of Brighton's well-known seafront hotels.
296	Bear Road, Brighton	22 December 2013			Not just a road (although it's an interesting one ... long, ridiculously steep and named in reference to bear-baiting); this has become the generic name of a whole suburb of Brighton. Terraced houses and splendid views characterise it.
297	Buildings and architecture of Brighton and Hove	30 December 2013			In preparation since July 2010 in a sandbox, this 16,000-word, picture-heavy epic discusses everything from faience-clad villas to pompous clock towers.
298	Thomas Simpson (architect)	5 May 2014			Another architect with a fine array of buildings in Brighton and Hove (mainly Brighton, though, and some have been demolished). Unlike e.g. John Leopold Denman, he wasn't a native Brightonian.
299	Gilbert Murray Simpson	5 May 2014			His son Gilbert was, though, and he was in his father's firm before designing some bits and pieces around the city in the interwar era, mainly in a slightly Georgian brown-brickish style.
300	List of former board schools in Brighton and Hove	5 May 2014			The main work done by both Simpsons was this splendid series of schools, mainly in inner suburban areas, such as...
301	Elm Grove, Brighton	7 May 2014			...this one (hilly, lots of terraced houses, landmark elm trees, good Victorian buildings of various types, blocked-up railway tunnel)...
302	Prestonville, Brighton	7 May 2014			...and this one (on a hillside, smashing views, nice largeish villas and terraced houses, no open space, some interesting ex-residents).
303	Henry Michell Wagner	23 July 2014			Rev. Wagner was the Vicar of Brighton for a long and turbulent period of the 19th century. This long, detailed biography was a long-term collaboration with Zigzig20s.
304	List of places of worship in Guildford (borough)	3 October 2014			More than a hundred churches/chapels/meeting rooms and a single synagogue are covered in the fifth installment of Surrey places of worship list action—all accompanied by sunny midsummer photos.
305	Libraries in Brighton and Hove	24 November 2014			A lengthy summary of library provision throughout the area now covered by the city—from Miss Widgett's Proprietary Library to the impressive modern Jubilee Library.
306	Hanningtons	16 December 2014			Actually started by User:Davidstewartharvey, I used pre-prepared material from a sandbox to expand the story of this legendary, much-missed Brighton institution, with its excellent Santa's Grotto, ancient lifts, quirky layout and old-fashioned ambience.
307	Percy and Wagner Almshouses	21 December 2014			These interesting old cottages, hidden away behind one of Brighton's major road junctions, are the only surviving almshouses in the city ... and they were nearly demolished in the 1970s. Fortunately, in a mostly dismal decade for Brighton's architectural heritage, they were listed and restored just in time.
308	Tower House, Brighton	6 February 2015			I found some interesting material in a book that had to go back to the library; checked a few other sources and found more; and remembered I'd taken a photo of this classy Edwardian listed building some 4½ years ago. Result: a quick article got written when I should have been doing other things.
309	Forge Wood	19 March 2015			The mythical 14th neighbourhood of Crawley finally has a name, a location (up near Tinsley Green, q.v.) and an article ... oh, and a lot of photos of foundations, muddy fields, roadworks etc. in its accompanying Commons category.
310	Arthur Wagner	6 August 2015			Like his father Henry Michell Wagner (q.v.), Arthur attracted remarkably controversy in Brighton during his long incumbency at St Paul's Church. This article was another collaboration with Zigzig20s.
311	Waste House	16 September 2015			A brilliantly quirky building behind the University of Brighton, and potential winner of a national award from RIBA (watch this space!). It's made out of rubbish, including thousands of old toothbrushes discarded on aeroplanes (!) and a mountain of cut-off legs of jeans. 2016 update: it didn't win that award, sadly.
312	Meadrow Unitarian Chapel	2 October 2015			The second in a series of places of worship in the stylish Surrey town of Godalming (the first was an expansion of the Catholic church's article) is the modest 18th-century building used by the Unitarian congregation, out of town on the River Wey.
313	Godalming Friends Meeting House	3 October 2015			Moving back into the centre of Godalming, this ancient building (not dissimilar in style to Meadrow chapel) can be found between the station and the Rose & Crown pub.
314	Salvation Army Hall, Godalming	4 October 2015			And just round the corner is this distinctive Classical-style building, used by three denominations but now converted into an office since its closure in 2012 (sadly I didn't get there in time to grab a photo when it was still in religious use!).
315	Godalming Congregational Church	5 October 2015			Another ex-chapel, now a rather upmarket-looking restaurant. The ex-Salvation Army hall was originally built for Congregationalists, and this building on Bridge Street was its successor. The congregation have now moved to Godalming United Church, an article I might expand at some point.
316	List of places of worship in Waverley (borough)	9 October 2015			As it says in the lead, this enormous list—my longest "places of worship" list so far, in terms of bytes—covers the churches, chapels and meeting rooms of this enormous and very pleasant borough (although the pubs are rather expensive, except the one in Churt).
317	Park Lane Chapel, Farnham	12 October 2015			I was interested to find in one of my obscure book sources that this distinctive and attractive Strict Baptist chapel, closed fairly recently, was founded by a Jewish convert from what used to be Congress (Russian) Poland, who found himself in Farnham in the mid-1840s. Surprising! It's now a house.
318	List of places of worship in Woking (borough)	22 December 2015			When "places of worship" and "Woking" are in the same sentence, discussion generally begins and ends with the famous, opulent Shah Jahan Mosque. There are plenty of other interesting entries in this list, though – and several mentions of the prolific architect W.F. Unsworth (could he have his own article one day?...)
319	Rolling stock of Network SouthEast	7 March 2016			Another of my great interests is the former Network SouthEast sector of British Rail, of red lamp-post fame. Articles about its history, marketing, distinctive branding and so on may follow, but to start with here's a list article covering the vast array of rolling stock used in its eight-year lifespan.
320	Courtenay Gate	23 March 2016			Hove is crammed with opulent, architecturally interesting blocks of flats (or mansion apartments, to be posh) with varying levels of locally or nationally listed status. On the local list is this prominently situated interwar seaside block, whose penthouse suite was home to a celebrity in the 1960s. Ooh! I haven't found much info about the architects yet.
321	2–3 Pavilion Buildings, Brighton	25 March 2016			Yet another of John Leopold Denman's Neo-Georgian specialities, this elegant office building was home to Brighton's oldest newspaper...
322	Brighton Herald	26 March 2016			...one of England's most important provincial newspapers for more than 150 years, which was good at breaking stories from continental Europe in the 19th century (Brighton being handily placed for the shipping route from Dieppe, by which news was delivered). It survived until 1971.
323	Princes House, Brighton	22 December 2016			About 30 seconds up the road from Pavilion Buildings is this excellent interwar building by Harry Stuart Goodhart-Rendel (yes, it's him again!), still showing the scars of a recent fire on one of the upper storeys. It has had various uses over the years.
324	Percy Stone	23 December 2016			Most of my work on Wikipedia in the second half of 2016 concerned the Isle of Wight and its churches and buildings. One prolific architect on the island and elsewhere was this London-born antiquarian, archaeologist and author.
325	List of current places of worship on the Isle of Wight	26 July 2017			This took 14 months (!) of work in a sandbox. Over 130 churches, chapels and a single mosque are covered across 235 kilobytes, 523 references and an awful lot of images, taken on days of varying sunniness in the summers of 2016 and 2017. Former places of worship will follow in due course!
326	Thomas Hellyer (architect)	26 July 2017			Another 19th-century architect not native to the Isle of Wight but long associated with it. Hellyer was based in Ryde, is buried there and contributed greatly to the resort's townscape—not least with the tall landmark spire of his sadly closed Holy Trinity Church, visible even from Portsmouth on a good day.
327	St Wilfrid's Church, Hailsham	5 March 2019			Preparation for this article started in 2012, when the present church was not even a drawing in the architect's office. After getting some pics of what is the newest church building in the Diocese I have finally managed to summarise the interesting story of Catholicism in Hailsham, through the various temporary churches to the three (!) permanent buildings, all of which survive (!!).
328	St George's Church, Polegate	5 March 2019			The other Catholic church in St Wilfrid's parish is this prominently sited building a couple of miles down the road in the railway town of Polegate.
329	Worthing Tramocars	14 March 2019			A short-lived but fondly remembered part of Worthing's transport history: these buses were converted dustbin lorries, invented by a man called Bill Gates. You couldn't make it up! A replica survives in excellent condition.
330	Waterlooville Baptist Church	19 November 2019			I have spent much time in the last couple of years researching and photographing places of worship in Hampshire. Here is the first article, about an "uncompromisingly modernist" building which won universal acclaim from architectural historians, but which my work colleague said looked like a swimming pool. Harsh! It serves the town of Waterlooville, a mostly dismal place architecturally.
331	Five Ash Down Independent Chapel	28 November 2019			I did some more research into Nonconformist places of worship in my native Sussex around this time, and decided to write a couple more articles about 18th-century chapels.
332	Uckfield Baptist Church	29 November 2019			This church, housed until recently in an elegant brick-built chapel in the pleasant town of Uckfield, was founded by seceders from the Five Ash Down chapel (q.v.), who got themselves into irreconcilable differences within a year.
333	List of places of worship in the Borough of Havant	29 January 2020			This places-of-worship list is the first Hampshire one to "mature" into mainspace, but I have been preparing five simultaneously in sandboxes for many months, and another three have already had their spreadsheets prepared. One of several small, densely populated boroughs in southeast Hampshire, Havant has a decent number of interesting churches and chapels, plus a Hindu temple in an old semi-detached house.
334	St Thomas à Becket Church, Warblington	29 January 2020			The borough's oldest church—although I can't find a reliable source for that (!)—is in an unusually rural and quiet area just outside Havant town centre. It was well liked by 19th-century body-snatchers for its seclusion. A potentially devastating fire in 2011 was luckily spotted by a neighbouring farmer whose cows were unusually restless: evidently they had spotted the smoke and flames.
335	List of places of worship in Portsmouth	31 January 2020			All 100 surviving places of worship (mosques, temples and synagogues as well as Christian churches, chapels and meeting rooms) in this fascinating city are documented and illustrated in this list, 21⁄2 years in preparation. Dozens more were lost to bombing in World War II or have been demolished at other times: 61, according to my spreadsheet, but quite possibly more!
336	List of places of worship in the Borough of Fareham	19 February 2020			The third Hampshire list to be launched, this covers exactly 40 places of worship in the fairly small, fairly suburbanised borough, whose convenient transport links also made it fairly easy to get around when I was on my mid-2019 photography mission.
337	Swanwick Shore Strict Baptist Chapel	19 February 2020			The borough's westernmost chapel is also arguably its most interesting; a classic Strict Baptist chapel (plain, simple, brick-built, early 19th-century) with a typically fascinating founder.
338	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: N–O	8 May 2020			About 10 years after I started the first part, here is part 6 (of 10) of the lists of Brighton and Hove's Grade II listed buildings.
339	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: P–R	10 May 2020			The seventh part followed immediately. An assortment of railings, a triumphal arch and the Pepper Pot (q.v.) are among the structures featured.
340	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: S	15 May 2020			Lots of churches, seafront shelters and statues on this list, plus a few pubs and a lot of buildings on Ship Street.
341	Brighton and Hove National Spiritualist Church	19 May 2020			Enough sources existed to write a decent article on a newly established Spiritualist church (following the amalgamation of two of the city's congregations). The extremely distinctive building it occupies is a surprisingly elegant classic of 1960s Brutalism.
342	Montpelier Place Baptist Church, Brighton	19 May 2020			Another architecturally interesting mid-1960s church, coincidentally a few steps away from the Spiritualist church which closed down (see above), this was sadly demolished in 2018 after an eventful period of disuse. Don't be fooled by the age of the building: the congregation could trace its roots back a very long way indeed.
343	List of places of worship in the Borough of Gosport	29 May 2020			The fourth of the Hampshire places of worship lists was launched into mainspace after simmering in a sandbox for a while. A delightfully preserved tin tabernacle is among the churches in the interesting town of Gosport itself.
344	Crown House, St Leonards-on-Sea	29 May 2020			The very first building put up in this early 19th-century seaside resort was the developer James Burton's own house—an elegant villa which nevertheless nearly got demolished in the 1950s when an unsympathetic borough council said some very uncomplimentary things about it. Now restored to residential use after some years as a pub, it looks better than it has done for many years.
345	List of places of worship in the Borough of Eastleigh	1 June 2020			The last of the relatively urban, easy-to-travel-round boroughs in the part of Hampshire closest to my home county of Sussex, I covered Eastleigh borough's array of Plymouth Brethren meeting rooms, medieval churches and interesting modern buildings at the same time as the Havant/Fareham/Gosport trips. There is also a tin tabernacle which is just about hanging on to "current places of worship" status.
346	List of former places of worship on the Isle of Wight	21 June 2020			Yet another Lockdown Production™ was the eventual completion and launch of this lengthy list of ex-churches and chapels on England's largest island. Remarkably, more than half of them are Methodist, reflecting the dominance of that denomination and the founding of a chapel in nearly every village and hamlet. Closures continue, so movements on to this list from this one are likely.
347	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: T–V	3 July 2020			The ninth instalment of the city's Grade II listed buildings features tombs, tram shelters, a couple of pubs (one housed in a very old chapel) and an awful lot of late Victorian villas on The Drive in Hove.
348	Grade II listed buildings in Brighton and Hove: W–Z	5 July 2020			The last part only has "W" buildings at the moment (mostly walls of various styles and sizes), but maybe one of the nice properties along York Place will be granted listed status one day … or even the Zylo Works!
349	List of places of worship in Elmbridge	4 January 2021			Back up to Surrey for the first time in 5 years for another list of churches, chapels and synagogues, this time in the famously affluent "Beverly Hills of Britain". Lockdown encouraged me to upload over 400 relevant images and dig out the research on the 60-odd places of worship in the borough.
350	Weybridge United Reformed Church	4 January 2021			One such is this impressive Victorian Gothic chapel in Weybridge town centre: a listed building with a fairly interesting history.
351	Yapton Free Church	7 January 2021			Yet another piece of lockdown "work" has involved me consolidating all of my sources for Sussex places of worship (including the recently acquired updated editions of the Buildings of England (a.k.a. Pevsner) series) and working out all the churches and chapels that are sufficiently notable for me to write about ... such as this nice Grade II-listed one.
352	South Street Free Church, Eastbourne	9 January 2021			Another one is this interesting town-centre chapel in Eastbourne, which belongs to the locally prominent but otherwise fairly obscure Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion denomination. The narrow, busy street makes it awkward to photograph!
353	Crowborough Community Church	22 January 2021			Chapels can be notable even if they are not listed buildings, as I attempt to prove with this short but useful article on an interesting, attractive chapel in the centre of the photogenic town of Crowborough. Incidentally there are more than 40 others on the "notable and worth writing about list" (in Sussex as a whole, not Crowborough!) ... how many more will I manage before lockdown ends?
354	Galeed Strict Baptist Chapel, Brighton	26 February 2021			Here's another ... an excellent Neoclassical chapel very near Brighton station (possibly the closest place of worship to it?), and yet another in the array of Strict Baptist chapels in East Sussex. Some prominent people were associated with it, as ministers, deacons and worshippers.
355	List of places of worship in East Hampshire	16 August 2021			Having already taken photos of a fair proportion of the 120 or so past and present places of worship in this vast, mostly rural district, I spent much of the summer of 2021 compiling this list while breaking off for a week to rush around in very mixed weather and get almost all the rest. At the same time I worked through the neighbouring City of Winchester district, whose (even larger) list will follow in due course!
356	Wellington Square Baptist Church, Hastings	4 February 2022			Back to Sussex Nonconformist chapels, and an imposing Grade II*-listed one with an interesting and fairly long history.
357	Hastings Unitarian Church	4 February 2022			Followed by another in central Hastings, 30 years newer (younger?) and not listed, although it is architecturally impressive!
358	Public services in Brighton and Hove	2 September 2022			An extremely long and rather tedious article (the subject matter, not the style of writing, hopefully!), but useful in covering all aspects of policing, healthcare, water supply and stuff like that in the city, both now and historically.
359	Ote Hall Chapel	6 October 2022			Another of the splendid historic Nonconformist chapels in Sussex, languishing in a sandbox until I found some old newspaper articles with some interesting, usable content.
360	Clarence House, Brighton	12 December 2022			It's many years since beer was sold here, but this building of 1785 (the oldest surviving on Brighton's commercial hub, North Street) was originally a coaching inn. Conversion to a restaurant and flats is pending.
361	Lewes Road, Brighton	17 March 2023			Probably the most interesting 3+1⁄2 miles (5.6 km) of A-road in the city, with its mixture of excellent churches, ultramodern university buildings, small shops and random Victorian architecture. Work on the article proceeded at a rate of 1 mile every 2 years.
362	Pubs in Brighton	17 March 2023			A subject on which I can speak with authority, being regularly found propping up one bar or another around the area. Having said that, I have photographed more than I've actually visited!
363	Winchester United Church	24 March 2023			Probably the most interesting and architecturally significant of the many Nonconformist chapels and meeting-houses in the delightful, ancient city of Winchester, which is better known for its Anglican cathedral.
364	List of places of worship in the City of Winchester District	24 March 2023			The city forms a small part of the wider, confusingly named City of Winchester District, which as can be seen has a great many places of worship of all types and sizes – some of which are extraordinarily hard to get to if you don't have a car!
365	Hove Library	13 September 2023			A splendid building with a very good collection of books and rarities: I have spent many hours in there doing Wikipedia research. Written in time for a link to it to appear on "Today's Featured Article" on 11 November 2023 (Hove War Memorial): there are memorial name plaques in the library entrance vestibule.
366	Lewes Friends Meeting House	12 January 2024			In a town which is known as a hotbed of Protestant Nonconformity, it is no surprise to find a venerable Quaker meeting house with origins in the very early days of the movement. Here's its story.
366	Horsham Friends Meeting House	13 January 2024			Lewes is in East Sussex; Horsham is its West Sussex equivalent in terms of Protestant Nonconformity. Again, it has an excellent Grade II-listed Quaker meeting house, built around the same time as Lewes but in a somewhat different (but still characteristically humble) style.
366	Church of the Sacred Heart, Fareham	22 February 2024			Quick article on a small, attractive Victorian Catholic church by the same (currently article-less) architect who designed my own parish church. More research is needed to write a proper article for him; watch this space!
