​
Hailsham - The town of Hailsham is situated seven miles north from Eastbourne. In the 19th century, Hailsham was primarily a market town and a centre for the manufacture of rope and twine. By 1807, Thomas Burfield had established a factory in Hailsham, making rope and twine, tarpaulin, corn and coal sacks and rick cloths. In the 1860s, the Green Family set up another factory manufacturing rope and twine. In 1881, Thomas Burfield junior was employing 110 persons at his rope factory, while the Green Brothers had a workforce of 114 men and 19 boys. In the 1890s, there were at least three factories in Hailsham manufacturing rope and twine. Not surprisingly, Hailsham became known as "The "StringTown". The link between hailsham and polegate stringtown supplies originated in hailsham a bigger shop was required and moved to polegate where we have been since 1994 upto the present day"
