About

Hailsham Central & East covers the heart of Hailsham town, centred on the High Street and the cluster of shops, banks and services that serve local residents. The town centre supports a regular market on Saturdays and houses civic functions, community venues and health and education facilities. The disused railway alignment that becomes the Cuckoo Trail skirts the northern edge of the area, providing a surfaced route for walking and cycling that links the town to surrounding villages and green spaces.

To the east of the centre the streets change to mainly housing, with a mix of terraces, semi-detached homes and pockets of newer development, backed by allotments and small public parks. Community and sports facilities sit within easy reach of the shops, and local schools and churches form part of daily life. Street-level businesses, local post office outlets and independent traders remain concentrated around the core, making the central and eastern part of Hailsham the main focus for shopping, services and short local journeys.
