About

The Mayfield and Wadhurst area lies within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Wealden, East Sussex. The landscape is a patchwork of small fields, ancient woodlands, hedged lanes and sandstone ridges that reflect the area's geology. Traces of the old Wealden iron industry remain in place names and earthworks, and a network of public footpaths and bridleways follows sunken lanes and ridgelines used for centuries.

Settlements are arranged along the ridges and valleys. Wadhurst sits on a sandstone scarp and has a station on the Hastings line, linking the village to coastal and London services. Many local buildings use the same iron-rich sandstone that outcrops nearby. Mayfield retains a spacious village green with a central pond and is home to an independent school occupying a historic estate. Local facilities, village halls and pubs serve scattered hamlets and farming communities, and the area is commonly used for walking, riding and seasonal local events.
