About

In East Grinstead East, residential streets and short terraces sit close to the town centre, making local shops and services easily reached on foot. The ward contains a mix of postwar estates and older roads that open on to small parks, allotments and footpaths into surrounding woodland and farmland. St Swithun's parish church and the town's High Street lie within easy reach, and the preserved Bluebell Railway terminus at East Grinstead brings steam services into the town from the heritage line. A railway footbridge and station buildings are familiar local landmarks.

Local schools, a community centre and primary health services form the core of day-to-day life, while a supermarket and independent traders serve weekly needs. Regular bus routes link the ward with the wider Mid Sussex network and the A22 and A264 are nearby for car travel. On summer weekends steam locomotives arriving at the preserved station draw residents to the platform, and quieter backstreets offer routes for walking and cycling away from the High Street.
