New name for the Community Centre at Bracklesham
The name ‘Brackle Barn’ has been given to the new Community Centre which is currently being built in Bracklesham.
A competition was held to name the centre and the name chosen by the Parish Council is Brackle Barn. The Barn had been suggested by Mr. David Pearce of Oakfield Avenue. ‘Brackle’ comes from the name of the Saxon, ‘Braccol’, who was the original inhabitant of the area and who gave his name to Bracklesham.
Choosing a name is always tricky, but we hope that all the residents will soon get used to calling the new hall ‘Brackle Barn’ which will soon become a thriving centre for the community.
