About

Hartfield ward covers a rural portion of the High Weald in East Sussex. The landscape is characterised by rolling hills, scattered woodlands and small fields bounded by hedgerows. Settlements are generally small and dispersed, with the village of Hartfield itself serving as a focal point. The area's economy has historical ties to agriculture and forestry, with tourism now also playing a role due to the surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The ward is notably associated with A.A. Milne, who lived locally and set the Winnie-the-Pooh stories in the surrounding Ashdown Forest. This connection draws visitors to specific sites like Poohsticks Bridge. The local terrain includes many quiet lanes and public footpaths crossing the heathland and streams of the forest. Community life centres on the village amenities, including the church, primary school and local shops.
