The Fitzgerald Almshouses — Croft Lane's Gothic Charity (1864)
In 1858 John Purcell-Fitzgerald, elder brother of the poet who translated the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, signed away more than fifty properties to house Seaford's labouring poor. Six years later the castellated almshouses rose in Croft Lane, flint and red brick with mock-Tudor chimneys and the Fitzgerald war cry carved above the arch. They are still housing people in need today, freshly rebuilt at a cost of nearly two million pounds.
Major Leslie Callf MC and Bar — Seaford's Commando Hero Turned Nurseryman
Born in Seaford in 1915, Leslie Callf led 5 Troop of No. 9 Commando through the Garigliano raids, Anzio and the terrible fighting on Monte Ornito, winning the Military Cross twice. Then he came home to run Rosedene Nurseries, and returned to Italy every year to lay a wreath at the cairn he helped build for his fallen comrades.
Captain Lewis Crook — Seaford's Sporting Godfather
His name is on the founding records of Seaford Cricket Club, the Seaford Rovers football club and, at one remove, the town's volunteer fire brigade. Captain Lewis Crook was the Victorian who seems to have started everything in Seaford that involved a pitch or a uniform, and yet almost nothing about the man himself is settled, including whether the cricket club really began in 1860 or thirty years later.
