East Grinstead – 6 Quirky Facts
- East Meets West
The Greenwich Meridian runs through the town, that means you can stand in both the eastern and western hemispheres at the same time. - Between Grins
Despite the neat geographical trick with the hemispheres, the Grinsteads are not nearly so close. East and West Grinstead are actually 41 miles apart. - Plastic Surgery
Sir Archibald McIndoe pioneered new plastic surgery techniques to help WWII pilots from his hospital in East Grinstead. The patients gave themselves the darkly humorous name, ‘The Guinea Pig Club’ and were happily welcomed by the local community. - Tudor Timber
East Grinstead is home to one of the longest continuous rows of Tudor Buildings in England which adds to the towns charming, historic feel. - Winnie The Pooh
The town sits beside Ashdown Forest, the location of 100 Acre Wood, which is home the home Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, et al. - Blow Off Steam
The local train station is wonderfully eccentric and houses both modern commuter trains (as part of the national rail network) and also a stop for Bluebell Railway, a steam train service running through the Sussex countryside.
