Hailsham
Hailsham is a civil parish and the largest of the five towns that form the Wealden region of East Sussex. With a population of just over 20000 and around 8500 homes, it is also the largest inland town in East Sussex. Hailsham lies 7 miles north of Eastourne, 19 miles south of Tunbridge Wells, 14 miles west of Hastings and 11 miles east of the town of Lewes. Being 6 miles from the coast and in between the heavily wooded hills of the southern Forest Ridge and the countryside of the South Downs, the town is surrounded by enticing and untouched scenery. Hailsham's classic market was rope making, which consisted of producing and supplying ropes for public hanging to Great Britain and the Colonies. Even with the decline of the sector, light industry continues in 2 sizeable commercial estates located in the town. The Heritage Centre in Blackman's Yard, run by members of the Hailsham Historical and Natural History Society, makes it possible for visitors to access the town's past through the use of snapshots and artefacts. Display screens presenting kitchens, farming, agriculture, regional industry and wartime souvenirs try to present a sense of the town's history over the past few hundred years. Hailsham has a wide variety of regional and national shops, eateries and a number of supermarkets. The majority of these can be found in the Quintins shopping centre, which was opened in the late 1980s. Another popular attraction for locals and visitors is the marketplace based in Vicarage Field, formed in 2013 as one of Hailsham Town Team's major initiatives.
