Hilders bakery in the High Street, Rottingdean was owned by Edgar Hilder but he sold up in the late 60s.
The Hilders are still very much involved with Rottingdean, the village where they were born and brought up.
In recent years, a field near to the playing fields was named Hilder’s field in recognition of the long standing Hilder family’s connections with Rottingdean.
