Heathfield
Heathfield is a small market town in East Sussex, England. The town lies near the junction of 2 main roads: the A267 in between Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne; and the A265 from Hawkhurst. It is practically equidistant from Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne: about 16 mi (26 kilometres). Traditionally, Heathfield lay on an ancient trackway (The Ridgeway), linking the South Downs with the Weald. Its market charter was given in February 1316 throughout the reign of Edward II. The Wealden iron brought success to the town during the course of the 16th and 17th centuries; the arrival of the railway (the Cuckoo Line) in 1880 gave it another new lease of life. The latter was not a financial success and the branch line in between Eridge and Polegate closed in 1968. The trackbed is now called the Cuckoo Trail, part of the National Cycle Network. The initial village, referred to as Old Heathfield, is now merely part of the town, which has broadened with time. The town holds an annual fair called the Heffle Cuckoo Fair each April, and the annual Heathfield show happens each May in the summertime. There is an Anglo/French market called Le Marché held every year on the August Bank Holiday and a fair that visits throughout the Summer. There is a relatively large football field and a little playground. At Cross-in-Hand there is a rugby club for adults and children. Within the town, there are 2 floral designers, a number of churches, a few hair and beauty salons, 2 boutiques, an electrical store, 2 bookshops, 2 ironmongers, 5 charity shops, 2 bars, a green grocer, a butcher, a baker, 2 antique shops, a supermarket, and a number of banks, estate agents, and eateries. For all of your home developments, be sure to find reputable contractors in Heathfield to make certain of quality.
