Arundel Museum Exhibition: Ralph Ellis - Artist and Inn Sign Designer

Arundel Museum Manager, Arundel
Discover the story of the Arundel resident who was one of England’s most successful inn sign painters.

Ralph Ellis’ inn sign painting career started in the 1920s and he retired in the 1950s. He painted hundreds of inn signs and was commissioned by breweries across England. Whilst people may know that he was an inn sign painter, this exhibition will give a wider view of his life. Including a profile of Ralph Ellis (1885-1963), his life before and after the Great War, and the growth of his inn sign business, including the technical process for making the signs and the work he exhibited in national exhibitions.

A Museum entry ticket is required to visit this exhibition. Members of Arundel Museum Society enjoy free entry. Why not consider joining to support the Museum?

Relief of the Poor in 19th Century Sussex - Dr. Mary Rudling

SFHG Worthing Meeting Centre, Worthing
 This talk considers the impact of the 1834 Poor Law Amendment Act (the New Poor Law) on the poor in Sussex. The legislation was described by one contemporary commentator as, 'A measure of extreme harshness and cruelty.' Support prior to and following the Act is compared, including placement in the workhouses. The profile of individual relief recipients and officials is discussed. 
  
Dr Mary Rudling began studying poor relief in Sussex ten years ago and completed her PhD in 2022.  She is a member of the Royal Historical Society and a volunteer at the Sussex Archaeological Society library.
