About Fencing in East Grinstead
East Grinstead in West Sussex sits at a crossroads that has drawn travellers and settlers for centuries, and its High Street still preserves one of the finest collections of timber framed medieval buildings in the south east of England, many dating from the 14th and 15th centuries when the town prospered from the Wealden iron and cloth trades. Perhaps the town's most remarkable modern chapter came during the Second World War, when Queen Victoria Hospital became a pioneering centre for reconstructive surgery under the plastic surgeon Archibald McIndoe, who treated badly burned airmen with such compassion and skill that his patients, who called themselves the Guinea Pig Club, formed a bond with the town that lasted for the rest of their lives.
