About

Crawley Down sits in Mid Sussex, between Crawley and East Grinstead. The village centre has a parade of shops, a primary school, a village hall and a recreation ground that includes a cricket pitch. Housing ranges from older cottages to later suburban development, and small parcels of farmland and woodland edge the settlement. Public transport links serve nearby towns while local roads connect to larger routes out of the valley.

The village retains an active community life, with a non-league football side, a cricket club on the green and regular events at the hall. A network of public footpaths runs out from the settlement into arable fields and small coppices, giving direct access to hedgerow-lined lanes and the scarp of the Weald. One thread of local identity is the football club name, which pairs the village with the nearby airport in its title and appears on matchdays at the village ground.
