About

Kingston ward lies just south of Lewes town centre, nestled between the River Ouse and the steep slopes of the South Downs. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing from different periods. Its eastern boundary is formed by the railway line, which connects it to the wider region. The presence of the river and the Downs shapes the local geography, offering distinct boundaries and views.

A notable local feature is the former Kingston Church, now a private residence, which stands as a historical landmark within the community. The area includes the Kingston Recreation Ground, a key green space for residents. Daily life here is connected to the amenities of central Lewes while maintaining a separate, quieter identity. The ward's layout reflects its position as a transition between the town and the open downland.
