141 VIVALEWES EDITORIAL If only, I’ve often thought, the Argos carpark could be turned into a pub garden for the John Harvey Tavern, then <strong>Lewes</strong> would have the chance to make something of its riverside location. But when you think of it, we’ve pretty much done our best to turn our back on the Ouse, in recent times. If you get the right seats at either of the cafés in the Riverside, you can see a stretch of water, and the Harvey’s ‘cathedral’ is in a fine location, but beyond that, the only business that really makes the most of the river running past it is Tesco. Which is one of the reasons why the redevelopment of the Phoenix Industrial Estate is such a hot topic. Whatever you think should happen there, you’ve got to agree that increasing public access to the river must be one of the developers’ priorities. We’ve made ‘water’ the theme of this issue, and it’s been a blast researching it, especially since our succession of mini heatwaves has made splashing around in the wet stuff such an attractive proposition. We join some all-weather swimmers in Seaford, we go out to sea with the RNLI, we mull over the benefits of wild swimming, and we go back in time to the Pells Pool, fed by a supply of fresh spring water from the aquifer below. Will the summer of <strong>2018</strong> be a hot one? The Express promises a ‘SCORCHER’ (as they always do): whatever the weather, we hope you get the chance to spend some of it by the water’s edge.
