00:00 Hi, I'm Mark Dunford and I'm here with today's Sussex World Daily Bulletin on Friday

00:06 February 2nd 2024.

00:09 Concerns have been raised that plans to build 247 new homes on land in a South Downs village

00:14 could threaten the future of rare birds in the area.

00:17 Bowerway homes are seeking planning permission from Horsham District Council to build the

00:21 new properties on a former mushroom farm in Facom, but nearby residents fear the development

00:27 will endanger rare black red starts which have been nesting in the area for more than

00:31 two years.

00:34 A town in Sussex has been named the third most Instagrammable hotspot to visit this

00:38 Valentine's Day.

00:39 As Valentine's Day approaches, love is in the air and couples are seeking the perfect

00:43 backdrop to capture their special moments in the UK.

00:47 So for those in the mood to travel and see new places, travel experts from DealPoints

00:51 have looked into the most Instagrammable hotspots to visit this Valentine's Day and can officially

00:55 reveal that Eastbourne takes third place with 897,958 Instagram hashtags.

01:04 A new chapter opens this week for Hastings White Rock Theatre as the Guildhall Trust

01:08 in Portsmouth takes over its running, adding to its creative portfolio.

01:13 CEO of the Guildhall Trust Andy Gray said "It's a great venue for us to work with and

01:18 it will be about changing the emphasis within the next few years, moving from a mixed-use

01:22 theatre to more of a music and concert-style hall, with one-nighters and just using our

01:27 relationships with the real top-notch promoters that we have built up with over the years."

01:34 A water company will be shutting its pumping station in St Leonard's.

01:37 Southern Water said it's planning a three-day shutdown of Sinkport's pumping station in

01:46 Bulverhive from next Tuesday, February 6th to Friday, February 9th.

01:50 The firm said the move is part of ongoing works to find a solution in order to stop

01:55 the main sewer in the area from bursting.

01:57 The pipe has burst several times since 2016, with three incidents alone happening in the

02:03 last year.
