its and bobs ian seccombe’s point of view Ian Seccombe has hit the theme nail on the head once more this month. “The Mind - a photo montage combining key elements in John Fowles’ 1965 novel The Magus,” he writes, in explanation, “telling the story of Nicholas Urfe, a young British school teacher who takes a job teaching English on a remote Greek island where he becomes embroiled in a psychological game in which reality and fantasy are manipulated and Urfe struggles to maintain his sanity.” Fowles’ previous (first) novel, The Collector, was, of course, set on the outskirts of Lewes. Sadly this is Ian’s last contribution to the mag, at least for the while, as he concentrates on other matters. We would like to thank him enormously for five years’ service providing fantastic pictures for this slot. town plaques #12: The odeon cinema The Odeon Cinema was built near the eastern end of Cliffe High Street on a site which had previously been used by Culverwells, agricultural engineers, who moved next door. It opened at a time of rapidly growing cinema attendances. The Odeon was huge: there were 986 seats. Just imagine – almost 1,000 people watching the same film, in Lewes! In common with most other cinemas of the time it boasted smartly uniformed usherettes and commissionaires. A battered photograph of them can be found on the Facebook page Lewes Past, as can images of the cavernous inside, the dominant frontage, a few posters and some sad shots of its demolition. The Odeon stood as a decaying edifice for over a decade – with the slogan ‘Shame!’ written on its façade - until, in the spirit of the 1980s, it was developed into housing and small retail units, just when Cliffe High Street was at its lowest commercial ebb. The shops have struggled to retain occupants. Marcus Taylor 13
