House in Hurst Lane, Sedlescombe
A modern house, Lynden Lea, in Hurst Lane. The original house on this land was called ‘Zimbabwe'. The name was changed to Lynden Lea probably in the late 1970s and retained when a new, larger house was constructed in the early 21st century.
‘Lynden Lea’, or ‘Linden Lea’ as it is usually spelt, is inevitably associated with the poem My Orcha’d in Linden Lea’ written in 19th century Dorset dialect by the scholarly William Barnes and published in 1859. In 1902 it was set to music by Ralph Vaughan-Williams and is still frequently heard in this version.
The poem itself could apply just as well to Hurst Lane as to a field in Dorset:
My Orcha'd in Linden Lea
'Ithin the woodlands, flow'ry gleaded,
By the woak tree's mossy moot,
The sheenen grass-bleades, timber-sheaded,
Now do quiver under voot;
An' birds do whissle over head,
An' water's bubblen in its bed
An' there vor me the apple tree
Do lean down low in Linden Lea.

Tartarian honeysuckle in a hedge by Hurst Lane
There are only 3 records of this alien shrub, Lonicera tatarica, in the wild in Sussex. It seems unlikely to have been planted as part of this hedge and was probably bird sown from a garden plant somewhere in the neighbourhood.
