About

Chailey, Newick and Barcombe sit within the Lewes district on the upland and riverine lands of central East Sussex. Chailey is marked by Chailey Common National Nature Reserve, a stretch of lowland heath and acidic ponds that supports dragonflies and rare mosses, and by the Chailey Heritage Foundation, a long-established centre for children with complex needs. Newick centres on a village green and cricket ground, with a cluster of 17th- and 18th-century houses around the lane network that links farms and narrow lanes. Community events and the village hall play a strong role in local life.

Barcombe follows the River Ouse through a series of mills, fords and weirs, and the hamlet of Barcombe Mills provides direct access to riverside footpaths and small fishing pools. The disused Lewes–Uckfield railway corridor and the remains of Barcombe station are visible in places and are used by walkers and wildlife. Local lanes connect all three villages to working farms, timbered cottages and small orchards, keeping land management and river access central to how people use the area.
