List of current places of worship in Wealden facts for kids

The "Cathedral of the Downs", St Andrew's Church at Alfriston, is an unrestored 14th-century Anglican church.

As of 2024, there are 134 places of worship in use across the district of Wealden, the largest of six local government districts in the English county of East Sussex. The mostly rural district, with five small towns and dozens of villages, has a 1,200-year documented history of Christian worship—a Saxon leader founded a church at Rotherfield in 790—and by the 19th century nearly every settlement had at least one church, as formerly extensive parishes were split up. Protestant Nonconformism, always strong in Sussex, flourished in the area now covered by the district: many Baptist, Methodist and Congregational chapels were built, and most survive. New churches continued to be built throughout the 20th century as the population grew. The district also has 50 former places of worship: their buildings survive but are now used for other purposes.

Historic England or its predecessor English Heritage have awarded listed status to more than 60 current and former church buildings in Wealden. A building is defined as "listed" when it is placed on a statutory register of buildings of "special architectural or historic interest" in accordance with the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, a Government department, is responsible for this; English Heritage, a non-departmental public body, acts as an agency of the department to administer the process and advise the department on relevant issues. There are three grades of listing status. Grade I, the highest, is defined as being of "exceptional interest"; Grade II* is used for "particularly important buildings of more than special interest"; and Grade II, the lowest, is used for buildings of "special interest". As of February 2001, there were 47 Grade I-listed buildings, 106 with Grade II* status and 2,020 Grade II-listed buildings in Wealden.

Location of Wealden and its places of worship

Wealden shown within East Sussex

Covering an area of 83,317 hectares (205,880 acres; 321.69 sq mi), Wealden is the largest of the six local authority areas in East Sussex, which has three small, highly urbanised coastal areas (the city of Brighton and Hove and the boroughs of Eastbourne and Hastings) and a large rural hinterland covered by three districts. Wealden is at the centre of these: the district of Lewes lies to the west and Rother is to the east. The borough of Eastbourne, to the south, is completely surrounded by the district. Wealden stretches the entire length of the county from the English Channel coast to the county boundaries of West Sussex, Surrey and Kent: it has also has boundaries with the local authority areas of Mid Sussex, Tandridge, Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells.

Wealden's population at the time of the United Kingdom Census 2011 was 148,915. Five small towns—Crowborough, Hailsham, Heathfield, Polegate and Uckfield—account for about half of these people, and each has several places of worship catering for different denominations. The rest of the population is spread across dozens of villages and hamlets in the largely rural district. Many of these settlements have at least one church—often an ancient building on a site where worship has taken place for over a thousand years. St Wilfrid, exiled to Sussex in the late 7th century, and his near-contemporary St Cuthman rapidly Christianised the county, and the 111 churches described in the Domesday Book of 1086 was a significant underestimate.

All Saints Church in Old Heathfield was built in the 14th century.

The oldest surviving church features in the district are from the Saxon era, found in a string of churches on the edges of the South Downs or in the flat plains around the River Cuckmere: at Arlington, East Dean, Friston and Jevington. Norman work survives in the churches at Alciston, Berwick, Hellingly, Herstmonceux, Isfield, Litlington, Little Horsted, Rotherfield (whose original church was founded in 792), Westdean, Westham and Wilmington. A rare Norman-era piscina survives at East Hoathly in an otherwise largely Victorian church, and at Hartfield a mostly late medieval church retains Norman masonry in one wall. Several Norman features survive at Maresfield but were moved around during Victorian restoration. Wadhurst's church was added to throughout the medieval era, but its Norman tower survives; and part of the Norman chancel survives at Pevensey in an otherwise mostly 13th-century church. Churches largely or wholly of that century—some of which replaced earlier buildings—can be found at Buxted, Chalvington, Chiddingly, Fletching (although Pevnser describes its tower as Norman), Folkington, Framfield (rebuilt in the 16th century after a fire), Lullington and Waldron. Features from the 13th century also survive at Hooe, Laughton, Ripe, Warbleton, Wartling and Willingdon, which were rebuilt or extended later in the medieval era, and at Ninfield in a church subjected to extensive 19th-century rebuilding. At Alfriston, the original Anglo-Saxon church was replaced in the 1360s by the vast cruciform "Cathedral of the Downs", whose flintwork is "some of the best in England". Also from that century is the church at Old Heathfield. Mayfield's ancient church (founded by Dunstan, the saint to which it is dedicated) is mostly 15th-century. English Anglican churches wholly of the 17th and 18th centuries are rare, but Withyham (rebuilt in 1680 after the predecessor burnt down) and Crowborough (newly built in 1744 and altered later) are represented in the district.

The 19th century was characterised by "an unprecedented upsurge" in the provision of new Anglican churches and the expansion of existing buildings, prompted by an increase in the competing attractions of Nonconformist denominations, a "quickening of religious feeling" in general and the huge increase in the population of towns. In some cases vast rural parishes were subdivided; in others, chapels of ease were provided in outlying rural areas distant from their parish church. Victorian restoration of old churches took place across the district and was particularly extensive at Hailsham, Selmeston and Uckfield, where the buildings are now essentially 19th-century. The era of large-scale churchbuilding (as opposed to restoration) in Wealden began in the late Georgian era with the opening of a new church in Frant, built between 1819 and 1822. The year 1836, just before Victoria's reign started, was significant: William Moseley was responsible for new churches in Forest Row and Hadlow Down that year (although the latter was greatly reworked in 1913); and Danehill, a main-road village in Fletching parish, also received its first chapel of ease in 1836. The present church of 1892 is by Bodley and Garner. It is the Victorian era that is most associated with the increase in churchbuilding activity, though. A church in the outlying part of Withyham parish close to the growing town of Crowborough opened in 1839. Four years later, a church was completed at Upper Dicker in Arlington parish; and prolific architect Richard Cromwell Carpenter's church at Nutley dates from 1845. The churches at Eridge and Tidebrook date from 1852 and 1856 respectively. James Piers St Aubyn designed a chapel of ease at Cross-in-Hand, the main settlement in Waldron parish, in 1863–64. A former school was converted into a chapel of ease in Mark Cross, part of Rotherfield parish, in 1873, although it was soon granted its own parish. A year later, work began on a church for the rapidly growing village of Polegate, and a church was built to serve the village of Horam in 1890. Endowments by rich benefactors allowed churches to be built at High Hurstwood (1872) and Hammerwood (1880). The wealthy Vicar of Brighton Arthur Wagner, who had a house in Buxted and established a convent there, also paid for the construction of a second church for the village in 1885–86. Fairwarp's church, designed in 1881 by Major Rohde Hawkins, was substantially extended in the 20th century, funded by the Eckstein baronets. Churches continued to be built throughout the 20th century. Examples include Blackham (1902), Jarvis Brook (1906), Colemans Hatch (1913, by Arthur Blomfield), Heathfield town (1915), Bodle Street Green (1923, replacing a fire-damaged one), Stone Cross (1924; a chapel of ease in Westham parish), Alderbrook (1957), Broad Oak (1959), Lower Willingdon (1962) and Pevensey Bay (1968, replacing one of 1881). In the east of Uckfield a tin tabernacle erected in 1904 was replaced by a combined church and sheltered housing development in 1971.

A new Catholic church was built in Hailsham in 2015.

Much of the southern and central part of present-day Wealden was covered by the vast Roman Catholic parish of the Our Lady of Ransom Church, Eastbourne. The strength of Protestant Nonconformism in the East Sussex countryside led to anti-Catholic feeling locally, and it was difficult to find suitable premises outside Eastbourne to celebrate Mass for the small number of Catholics in the area. Eastbourne's parish priest founded a Mass centre in Hailsham in 1917, and numbers of worshippers grew to the extent that the rented premises (the hay-loft of a brewery's stables) were swapped for a purpose-built church in 1922. The present St Wilfrid's Church dates from 2015. A church was also built in Polegate in 1938; St George's Church is now part of a joint parish with St Wilfrid's. The area around Uckfield has supported two Catholic churches since the late 19th century, in the town itself and at Heron's Ghyll; they are also joined as one parish. St John the Evangelist Church at Heron's Ghyll dates from 1896–97, but a Catholic mission was founded there 30 years earlier by poet Coventry Patmore. Frederick Walters, its architect, also designed Uckfield's first Catholic church; it was replaced by the present distinctive concrete-framed Church of Our Lady Immaculate and St Philip Neri, completed in 1958. Crowborough's church opened in 1911 and was enlarged in 1922. In Mayfield, an oratory dedicated to St Thomas of Canterbury in the convent school at the Old Palace was used for public Masses from 1932, although it was not formally registered for worship until 1946 and for marriages the following year. A permanent church of the same dedication was completed in 1957 to the design of prolific local architect Henry Bingham Towner. Catholic worship in the Wadhurst area was focused on the chapel at The Mount Novitiate House of Fathers of Charity, originally founded by Rosminians, but they built the present Church of the Sacred Heart in 1929 for use by the general public. St Catherine's Church was built in 1953 to serve Heathfield, but it has been demolished and local Catholics now worship at the chapel of a Benedictine convent in nearby Cross-in-Hand. Churches were also opened in Forest Row in 1958 (closed 2009) and both Pevensey Bay and Rotherfield in 1963 (closed 2016 and 2019 respectively).

Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel dates from 1837.

The Methodist Statistical Returns published in 1947 recorded the existence of 17 Methodist chapels, all of Wesleyan origin, in present-day Wealden. Chapels at Blacknest, Gamelands and Hailsham were part of the Eastbourne Circuit; the St Leonards and Bexhill Circuit looked after chapels at Lower Ninfield (Russell's Green) and Upper Ninfield; chapels at Boarshead, Crowborough, Groombridge, Hartfield and Rotherfield were in the Tunbridge Wells Circuit; and the Sussex Mission was responsible for the chapels at Blackboys, Buxted, Cross-in-Hand, East Hoathly, Laughton, Ridgewood, East Sussex and Uckfield. Those at Buxted, Cross-in-Hand, Gamelands, Hailsham and Upper Ninfield are still used for Methodist worship, and Methodist congregations still worship in Crowborough and Uckfield but share the United Reformed Church buildings in both towns. Another joint United Reformed and Methodist church exists in Lower Willingdon: originally built for Wesleyan Methodists, it was closed at the time of the Statistical Returns survey. Only one separate United Reformed church exists in the district, at Polegate (opened in 1904 as a Congregational chapel). A Congregational chapel built in 1811 in Herstmonceux declined to join the United Reformed Church when that denomination was formed in 1972 (incorporating most English Congregational chapels) and instead is part of the independent Congregational Federation; and the present Hailsham Free Church (now Evangelical) was originally registered for Congregationalists.

Churches with a Calvinistic character, whether independent or aligned with the doctrines of the Strict and Particular Baptists, have thrived since the 18th century. (The term "Strict Baptist" to describe a distinctively Calvinist interpretation of Baptist view developed in the 19th century "with the purpose of organising a range of Calvinistic Baptist causes within a denominational identity".) Sussex, and the east of the county in particular, is "particularly well endowed with wayside chapels" supporting these principles: such buildings are typically "modest in scale, neat ... [and] restrained", with a "quiet and unassuming elegance". The 800-capacity Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel at Lower Dicker, built in 1837, is the most prominent example; it was founded by members of nearby Golden Cross Chapel (1813), who had met locally for small-scale meetings of a Calvinist character since the late 18th century. Both chapels are still in use. Thomas Dicker, a member of a long-established local family, founded Five Ash Down Independent Chapel in 1784; his son was involved with the Strict Baptist churches at Uckfield and Hailsham. A member of Zoar left to take up the pastorate at Ebenezer Chapel at Bodle Street Green and changing its doctrines to Strict Baptist. Many Strict Baptist chapels in the district have closed, but others still in use—often for congregations established long before they were built—include the chapels at Blackboys (1875), Broad Oak (1859), Jarvis Brook (1876), Mayfield (1873), Pick Hill (1873) and Rotherfield (1858).

Religious affiliation

According to the United Kingdom Census 2011, 148,915 people lived in Wealden. Of these, 64.01% identified themselves as Christian, 0.38% were Muslim, 0.16% were Jewish, 0.3% were Buddhist, 0.15% were Hindu, 0.02% were Sikh, 0.76% followed another religion, 26.29% claimed no religious affiliation and 7.94% did not state their religion. The proportion of Christians was higher than the 59.38% in England as a whole, and the proportions of people claiming adherence to another religion or no religious affiliation were also higher in Rother than nationally (the figures for England as a whole were 0.43% and 24.74% respectively). The percentage of people in Rother not answering this census question was also higher than the 7.18% nationally. Other religions named in the census had much lower proportions of followers than in England overall—the corresponding national percentages were 5.02% for Islam, 1.52% for Hinduism, 0.79% for Sikhism, 0.49% for Judaism and 0.45% for Buddhists.

Administration

All Anglican churches in Wealden are part of the Diocese of Chichester, whose cathedral is at Chichester in West Sussex, and most are in the Archdeaconry of Lewes and Hastings—one of three subdivisions which make up the next highest level of administration. In turn, this archdeaconry is divided into eight deaneries. The churches at Hooe and Ninfield are in the Rural Deanery of Battle and Bexhill. Those at Bodle Street Green, Broad Oak, Cross-in-Hand, Hailsham, Hawkswood, Heathfield, Hellingly, Herstmonceux, Horam, Old Heathfield, Upper Dicker, Waldron, Warbleton and Wartling are part of the Rural Deanery of Dallington. East Dean, Friston, Jevington, Pevensey, Pevensey Bay, Polegate, Stone Cross, Westham and Willingdon's churches are in the Eastbourne Rural Deanery. The churches at Alciston, Alfriston, Arlington, Berwick, Chalvington, Folkington, Laughton, Litlington, Lullington, Ripe, Selmeston, West Dean and Wilmington are in the Rural Deanery of Lewes and Seaford. Those at Blackham, Coleman's Hatch, Crowborough (three churches), Eridge Green, Five Ashes, Frant, Groombridge, Hartfield, Jarvis Brook, Mark Cross, Mayfield, Rotherfield, Tidebrook, Wadhurst and Withyham are in Rotherfield Rural Deanery. Buxted's two churches and those at Chelwood Gate, Chiddingly, Danehill, East Hoathly, Fairwarp, Fletching, Framfield, Hadlow Down, High Hurstwood, Isfield, Little Horsted, Maresfield, Nutley and Uckfield are part of the Rural Deanery of Uckfield. Three churches in the north of the district—at Forest Row, Hammerwood and Holtye Common (now redundant)—are part of the Rural Deanery of East Grinstead in the Archdeaconry of Horsham.

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Arundel and Brighton, whose cathedral is at Arundel, administers Wealden's eight Roman Catholic churches. The churches at Hailsham and Polegate are in Eastbourne and St Leonards-on-Sea Deanery; and the other seven—at Crowborough, Heathfield, Heron's Ghyll, Mayfield, Rotherfield, Uckfield and Wadhurst—are in Mayfield Deanery. The churches at Hailsham and Polegate are part of a joint parish, as are Uckfield's and Heron's Ghyll's churches. Until its closure in 2019, the Catholic church at Rotherfield was part of a joint parish with Wadhurst in Rother District, also part of Mayfield Deanery.

The Central Sussex United Area, an ecumenical partnership between the Methodist Church and the United Reformed Church's Southern Synod, was formed in September 2007 to administer churches belonging to those denominations in an area bounded by Haywards Heath, Eastbourne and Crowoborough. The churches covered by this partnership are the Methodist churches at Buxted, Cross-in-Hand, Gamelands and Hailsham, the United Reformed Church at Polegate and the joint Methodist and United Reformed churches at Crowborough, Lower Willingdon and Uckfield. Ninfield Methodist Church is part of the 13-church Hastings, Bexhill and Rye Methodist Circuit.

Union Church in Heathfield and the Herstmonceux Free Church are part of the Congregational Federation, an association of independent Congregational churches in Great Britain. The federation came into existence in 1972 when the Congregational Church in England and Wales merged with several other denominations to form the United Reformed Church. Certain congregations wanted to remain independent of this, and instead joined the Congregational Federation. As of January 2021 there were 235 churches in the Federation.

Union Church and Welcome Baptist Church at Heathfield, Trinity Church at Lower Willingdon and the Baptist churches in Pevensey Bay and Uckfield are administratively part of the East Sussex Network of the South Eastern Baptist Association. Forest Row Baptist Church is covered by the Association's Gatwick Network. The district also has several Strict Baptist chapels which are part of the Gospel Standard movement: the chapels called Ebenezer at Bodle Street Green, Broad Oak and Horam (Pick Hill), Hope Chapel at Blackboys, Providence at Rotherfield, Rehoboth at Jarvis Brook, Zoar at Lower Dicker and the chapels at Mayfield and Foresters Hall in Uckfield.

Bells Yew Green Chapel and Hailsham Gospel Mission belong to the Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion—a small group of Evangelical churches founded by Selina Hastings, Countess of Huntingdon during the 18th-century Evangelical Revival—which has 22 churches in England, concentrated particularly in Sussex.

There is a weatherboarded section to the rear, and the gable end has ornate bargeboards. Worshippers, who follow the Gospel Standard tradition, first met in 1843, but the chapel was built in 1859 and was registered for marriages in March 1873.
St Margaret the Queen's Church		Buxted 50°59′15″N 0°06′57″E / 50.9876°N 0.1158°E / 50.9876; 0.1158 (St Margaret the Queen's Church, Buxted)	Anglican	A I	Unusually dedicated to Saint Margaret of Scotland, this 13th-century church has stood isolated in Buxted Park since the 1830s, when the privacy-seeking Lord of the Manor forced occupants of the surrounding houses to move 0.5 miles (0.80 km) east to a new village. Victorian restoration obscures some of the original work.

The large church, built in 1892 to replace a smaller brick and stone building of 1836 (by architect John Cowper) was parished in 1898: it took over parts of Fletching and Horsted Keynes parishes.
Forest Hall		Dodd's Bank, Nutley 51°01′20″N 0°03′57″E / 51.0221°N 0.0658°E / 51.0221; 0.0658 (Forest Hall, Dodd's Bank, Nutley)	Open Brethren	D –	Locally nicknamed "The Chapel in the Woods" and located in the parish of Maresfield near Nutley village, this Brethren gospel hall was established in 1897 and was licensed for certifying marriages ten years later.

The base of the tower formed part of the original nave: a rare arrangement. A porch was added in the 15th century, as was a king post roof, and the Jacobean pulpit dates from 1623. The churchyard has a Tapsel gate.
East Hoathly Church		East Hoathly 50°55′30″N 0°09′42″E / 50.9249°N 0.1616°E / 50.9249; 0.1616 (East Hoathly Church, East Hoathly)	Anglican	B II*	The castellated tower and its stair-turret are 15th-century Perpendicular Gothic, but the rest of the church was rebuilt in 1856 in Early English style.

The Early English-style local stone building was designed in 1881 by Major Rohde Hawkins and has a windowless apse at the east end.
Five Ash Down Independent Chapel		Five Ash Down 50°59′37″N 0°06′12″E / 50.9937°N 0.1033°E / 50.9937; 0.1033 (Five Ash Down Independent Chapel, Five Ash Down)	Evangelical	D –	Inspired by a "fiery sermon" preached in Uckfield, Thomas Dicker founded an Independent chapel on his father's land in 1784. The church which became Uckfield Baptist Church seceded the following year after doctrinal disagreements. The Early English-style building was given a new three-bay blue-brick façade (with contrasting quoins) in the 1870s. There is a graveyard in front of the building. A marriage licence was granted in September 1895. The congregation is now an Evangelical fellowship, independent of denominational links and based on Reformed ecclesiology.

Norman evidence can also be seen in the nave, where two unevenly placed windows are of that era. John Baker-Holroyd, 1st Earl of Sheffield built a mausoleum in the north transept; his friend Edward Gibbon is also buried in it.
St Peter's Church		Folkington 50°48′46″N 0°12′44″E / 50.8128°N 0.2121°E / 50.8128; 0.2121 (St Peter's Church, Folkington)	Anglican	A I	This two-cell flint and stone church, without an arch between the chancel and nave, also has a timber-framed roof and a belfry with weatherboarded sides.

The tower rises straight from the west porch and is topped by a narrow spire. The nave has a Lady chapel with a version of the Madonna of the Magnificat.
St Mary the Virgin Church		Hailsham 50°51′47″N 0°15′37″E / 50.8631°N 0.2603°E / 50.8631; 0.2603 (St Mary the Virgin Church, Hailsham)	Anglican	A I	A medieval appearance is belied by major rebuilding in 1870 and 1889, when the church was given its consistent Perpendicular Gothic style. The buttressed tower is built of alternating flint and stone blocks. Inside, a 13th-century capital was probably moved here from nearby Michelham Priory.
Hailsham Gospel Mission		Hailsham 50°51′40″N 0°15′28″E / 50.8610°N 0.2577°E / 50.8610; 0.2577 (Hailsham Gospel Mission, Hailsham)	Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion	D –	The Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion owns this place of worship on Hailsham's Station Road.

Although the present building has a 19th-century appearance as a result of an extension and remodelling in 1898–99, its origins lie in a low rectangular chapel of 1734 which survives behind the gabled two-storey cottage-style brick façade. Inside, there is a 1734 date-stone above a blocked door. The attached burial ground was closed to new burials in 1897.
Holy Trinity Church		High Hurstwood 51°01′06″N 0°07′47″E / 51.0184°N 0.1298°E / 51.0184; 0.1298 (Holy Trinity Church, High Hurstwood)	Anglican	C II	Politician Francis Venables-Vernon-Harcourt's wife Lady Catherine paid for this remote church near her home at Buxted (Pevsner said its flower-ringed valley setting was "Arcadia indeed"). An unknown architect designed it in 1870–72, and a half-timbered tower was added in 1903. Some of the lancet windows have tracery.
St Oswald's Church		Hooe 50°51′27″N 0°23′22″E / 50.8576°N 0.3895°E / 50.8576; 0.3895 (St Oswald's Church, Hooe)	Anglican	A I	Standing apart from its village—perhaps because the centre of population was forced away by the Black Death—this Perpendicular sandstone church was restored in the 15th century but retains 12th-century work in the chancel and its side chapel. The east window has ancient stained glass depicting the Coronation of the Virgin.
Christ Church		Horam 50°55′54″N 0°14′41″E / 50.9316°N 0.2446°E / 50.9316; 0.2446 (Christ Church, Horam)	Anglican	D –	Percy Monkton's small church of 1890 was to have been replaced by an expansive new building less than 25 years later—but these plans were never followed through, and the red-brick Gothic-style building remains. It has a belfry and lancet windows, and there is evidence of later extensions.
Horam Chapel		Horam 50°56′07″N 0°14′39″E / 50.9353°N 0.2443°E / 50.9353; 0.2443 (Horam Chapel, Horam)	Evangelical	D –	This modern building stands in the centre of Horam village.

One 13th-century lancet window survives in the nave, and some other features are Decorated Gothic. Work in 1893 included the addition of a belfry and spire to the mostly Norman tower. A good example of a hagioscope survives in the chancel.
St Michael and All Angels Church		Jarvis Brook 51°02′47″N 0°11′25″E / 51.0463°N 0.1904°E / 51.0463; 0.1904 (St Michael and All Angels Church, Jarvis Brook)	Anglican	D –	A school built in 1880 was used for worship until J.B. Tansley's stone and timbered chapel of ease to Crowborough parish church was completed in 1906 at a cost of £2,000. William Nevill, 1st Marquess of Abergavenny donated the land. The nave has lancet windows and no aisles, and there is a bellcote.
St Richard's Church		Jarvis Brook 51°02′30″N 0°10′17″E / 51.0418°N 0.1713°E / 51.0418; 0.1713 (St Richard's Church, Jarvis Brook)	Anglican	D –	Another church associated with All Saints in Crowborough, this brick building (originally called St Richard's Hall) was finished in 1957 and serves the Alderbrook area near Jarvis Brook. Extensions have been built since the church opened.
Rehoboth Chapel		Jarvis Brook 51°02′30″N 0°10′50″E / 51.0417°N 0.1806°E / 51.0417; 0.1806 (Rehoboth Chapel, Jarvis Brook)	Strict Baptist	D –	This red- and blue-brick building dates from 1876. Its Gospel Standard Strict Baptist congregation, maintains links with the Forest Fold chapel on the other side of Crowborough. Seceders from that chapel founded the Jarvis Brook cause in 1852; they met in a schoolroom at first. The chapel was registered for the solemnisation of marriages in November 1893.
Kingdom Hall		Jarvis Brook 51°02′54″N 0°11′11″E / 51.0484°N 0.1864°E / 51.0484; 0.1864 (Kingdom Hall, Jarvis Brook)	Jehovah's Witnesses	D –	The Crowborough Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses registered a hall off Crowborough Hill in July 1967.

Its present congregation is affiliated with the United Spiritualists movement.
St Andrew's Church		Jevington 50°47′32″N 0°12′50″E / 50.7921°N 0.2140°E / 50.7921; 0.2140 (St Andrew's Church, Jevington)	Anglican	A I	The substantial tower of this ancient village's church is 10th-century, and other Saxon evidence is visible in two blocked windows, which reused Roman material. St Lewinna, a 7th-century martyr, was allegedly buried here; her remains were apparently stolen in 1058. The rest of the church is 13th-century and in the Early English style. A porch was built in 1873.
All Saints Church		Laughton 50°53′35″N 0°07′57″E / 50.8931°N 0.1325°E / 50.8931; 0.1325 (All Saints Church, Laughton)	Anglican	A I	Mostly Perpendicular Gothic, with a 13th-century nave and a castellated tower, this church is most famous for its association with the Pelham baronetcy. Many family members are buried here, including two Prime Ministers: Henry Pelham and the 1st Duke of Newcastle. The chancel is 18th-century, and the porch is Victorian.
St Michael the Archangel's Church		Litlington 50°47′50″N 0°09′37″E / 50.7971°N 0.1603°E / 50.7971; 0.1603 (St Michael the Archangel's Church, Litlington)	Anglican	A I	A simple building with nave, chancel and spire-topped weatherboarded bell-tower, Litlington's church is mostly 12th-century. Other ancient features include three sundials, a 13th-century piscina and sedile, an Easter sepulchre, a 15th-century bell and one very old stained-glass window. Restoration in 1863 added a multicoloured tiled floor.
St Michael and All Angels Church		Little Horsted 50°56′43″N 0°05′31″E / 50.9453°N 0.0919°E / 50.9453; 0.0919 (St Michael and All Angels Church, Little Horsted)	Anglican	C II	This hamlet near Uckfield is also called Horsted Parva. Its church, with a prominent ashlar Perpendicular Gothic Revival tower, was expensively restored in the Early English style by George Gilbert Scott in 1863. An arcade of four blocked windows (called "a remarkable motif" by Pevsner) in the chancel wall may be Saxon.
Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel		Lower Dicker 50°52′44″N 0°13′37″E / 50.8790°N 0.2270°E / 50.8790; 0.2270 (Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel, Lower Dicker)	Strict Baptist	D –	Originally called The Dicker Chapel, this 400-capacity building dates from 1837 and was registered for marriages seven years later. On a main road in a remote spot, it serves a wide area and had extensive stables for worshippers arriving on horseback. The Classical-style stuccoed brick chapel, enlarged and refronted in 1874, has a pediment, porch and pilasters.
St Wilfrid's Church		Lower Willingdon 50°48′39″N 0°14′28″E / 50.8107°N 0.2411°E / 50.8107; 0.2411 (St Wilfrid's Church, Lower Willingdon)	Anglican	D –	This Eastbourne suburb is served by this church within the parish of Polegate's St John's Church (but independent from it since 2002). It was established in 1962. Worship is in the Conservative Evangelical tradition of the Church of England, and the church belongs to the Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans and the Evangelical Alliance.
Trinity Church		Lower Willingdon 50°48′29″N 0°14′49″E / 50.8081°N 0.2470°E / 50.8081; 0.2470 (Trinity Church, Lower Willingdon)	Baptist/Methodist/ United Reformed Church	D –	Now used by three denominations, this red-brick church was built in 1894 for Methodists. Like many churches in the Eastbourne area, it suffered bomb damage in World War II and closed for several years for reconstruction. The windows are lancets, and there is exterior stonework. It was registered for marriages with the name Willingdon United Free Church in July 1939.
Downs Valley Apostolic Church		Lower Willingdon 50°48′43″N 0°14′46″E / 50.8120°N 0.2460°E / 50.8120; 0.2460 (Downs Valley Apostolic Church, Lower Willingdon)	Pentecostalist	D –	This church serves the Pentecostalist and Apostolic communities in the Eastbourne area, and offers two services on Sundays.
Church of the Good Shepherd		Lullington 50°48′25″N 0°10′03″E / 50.8069°N 0.1676°E / 50.8069; 0.1676 (Church of the Good Shepherd, Lullington)	Anglican	A I	"Not easily forgotten", according to Nikolaus Pevsner, this tiny building—merely part of the chancel of the original church—is often called the smallest church in England: it is 16 square feet (1.5 m2) and holds 20 people. The old foundations survive near the entrance. What remains is Early English in style, dating from the 13th/14th century. A wooden belfry was added in 1806.
St Bartholomew's Church		Maresfield 50°59′49″N 0°05′15″E / 50.9969°N 0.0875°E / 50.9969; 0.0875 (St Bartholomew's Church, Maresfield)	Anglican	A I	The large Perpendicular-style tower is 15th-century, and Norman work is visible in a window and around the north door, but John Oldrid Scott's restoration of 1875–79 gave Maresfield's church its present appearance. He realigned the interior: the original chancel arch now leads to the north transept, and the east window now faces south. Interior fittings include an 18th-century pulpit.
St Mark's Church		Mark Cross 51°03′32″N 0°15′26″E / 51.0590°N 0.2571°E / 51.0590; 0.2571 (St Mark's Church, Mark Cross)	Anglican	D –	E.E. Cronk converted this former school (built in 1851) into a church in 1873. It was within the parish of Rotherfield until 1874, when it was given its own parish from parts of Wadhurst and Rotherfield. A very large east window was the main structural alteration to the stone and brick building.
St Dunstan's Church		Mayfield 51°01′15″N 0°15′38″E / 51.0207°N 0.2606°E / 51.0207; 0.2606 (St Dunstan's Church, Mayfield)	Anglican	A I	Dunstan himself built a wooden church on the site in the 10th century. Its stone replacement burnt down in 1389 and was rebuilt in the Perpendicular style, although the stubby tower and its spire retain their 13th-century appearance. The church has a wooden chancel arch ceiling with prominent moulding.
Mayfield Particular Baptist Chapel		Mayfield 51°01′11″N 0°15′30″E / 51.0196°N 0.2583°E / 51.0196; 0.2583 (Mayfield Particular Baptist Chapel, Mayfield)	Strict Baptist	D –	This 250-capacity building has a much smaller congregation than in its 19th-century heyday, but remains in use. It has stood on its village-centre corner site since 1873 (and was registered for marriages two years later), but Baptist worship in the Mayfield area has a much longer history.
Colkins Mill Church		Mayfield 51°01′12″N 0°15′22″E / 51.0201°N 0.2561°E / 51.0201; 0.2561 (Colkins Mill Church, Mayfield)	Evangelical	D –	This mid-19th-century Wesleyan Methodist chapel became a Congregational church in 1869. It closed in 1984, by which time it was a United Reformed church; but the lancet-windowed stucco and stone chapel was immediately bought by members of the Evangelical chapel at nearby Colkins Mill, who moved in and renamed it. It was formally registered in June 1992.
St Thomas of Canterbury's Church		Mayfield 51°01′11″N 0°15′13″E / 51.0198°N 0.2535°E / 51.0198; 0.2535 (St Thomas of Canterbury's Church, Mayfield)	Roman Catholic	D –	Henry Bingham Towner, a prolific designer of Roman Catholic churches in Sussex, replaced a 1932 building with this simple Gothic Revival flint and ashlar church in 1957. It is low and long, with a saddleback roof. Two modern stained glass windows have been inserted. The church was registered in October 1957.
St Mary the Virgin Church		Ninfield 50°53′06″N 0°25′21″E / 50.8849°N 0.4226°E / 50.8849; 0.4226 (St Mary the Virgin Church, Ninfield)	Anglican	A I	An ancient yew tree survives in the churchyard, but the Saxon church which stood alongside it has gone; the present building has 13th- and 17th-century work, but a major restoration (possibly by Arthur Blomfield) in the 1880s obscures it. The south porch is of brick, unusually, and dates from 1735. The clapboard belfry of 1897 holds a 14th-century bell.
Ninfield Methodist Church		Ninfield 50°53′09″N 0°25′27″E / 50.8858°N 0.4242°E / 50.8858; 0.4242 (Ninfield Methodist Church, Ninfield)	Methodist	D –	The foundation stone of this red-brick chapel in the centre of Ninfield identifies William Booth's wife Catherine as the founder. The building dates from 1871, but was registered under the name Christian Mission Hall between February 1872 and July 1933.
St James the Less Church		Nutley 51°01′56″N 0°03′18″E / 51.0323°N 0.0549°E / 51.0323; 0.0549 (St James the Less Church, Nutley)	Anglican	D –	Richard Cromwell Carpenter, who was responsible for many Gothic Revival churches, was commissioned to design Nutley's church in 1845. His steep-roofed stone building was extended in 1871 by the addition of a Decorated Gothic-style north aisle. The west end has a small bellcote.
All Saints Church		Old Heathfield 50°57′36″N 0°16′30″E / 50.9599°N 0.2749°E / 50.9599; 0.2749 (All Saints Church, Old Heathfield)	Anglican	B II*	Little has changed at this sandstone church since the 14th century. The tower, with a broach spire, is slightly older and is built of chalk with sandstone on the exterior. Restoration in the 1890s eliminated galleries which had been installed earlier in the century: a large capacity was no longer needed because the vast parish had become smaller as new churches had been built. Former vicar Robert Hunt, a founder of Jamestown, Virginia, is commemorated by a stained-glass window.
St Nicolas' Church		Pevensey 50°49′11″N 0°20′12″E / 50.8196°N 0.3368°E / 50.8196; 0.3368 (St Nicolas' Church, Pevensey)	Anglican	A I	This church has stood next to Pevensey Castle since the 12th century, but the only original material from that time is part of the chancel. The rest was rebuilt in the 13th century and—in the case of the porch and the tower's top stage—the Victorian era (by George Gilbert Scott Jr.). The building is a good example of the Early English Gothic style.
St Wilfrid's Church		Pevensey Bay 50°48′42″N 0°21′03″E / 50.8117°N 0.3507°E / 50.8117; 0.3507 (St Wilfrid's Church, Pevensey Bay)	Anglican	D –	The original church—a red-brick and stone building of 1881—was demolished in 1971, three years after its replacement was built nearby. The low modern structure has an attached hall which is used for most of Pevensey Bay's social activities.
Pevensey Bay Baptist Church		Pevensey Bay 50°48′43″N 0°21′02″E / 50.8120°N 0.3505°E / 50.8120; 0.3505 (Pevensey Bay Baptist Church, Pevensey Bay)	Baptist	D –	Another modern replacement church, this building dates from 1982 and stands on the site of its 1906 predecessor. The congregation is now aligned to the Baptist Union of Great Britain, but has been associated with the Free Church for most of its existence. Its marriage registration was granted in February 1984.
Ebenezer Strict Baptist Chapel		Pick Hill, Horam 50°55′14″N 0°13′42″E / 50.9205°N 0.2282°E / 50.9205; 0.2282 (Ebenezer Strict Baptist Chapel, Pick Hill)	Strict Baptist	D –	Also known as Pick Hill Chapel, this small, isolated building was opened in 1873 to replace an earlier chapel founded in about 1849 by Eli Page.

St John's Church		Polegate 50°49′11″N 0°14′37″E / 50.8196°N 0.2437°E / 50.8196; 0.2437 (St John's Church, Polegate)	Anglican	D –	Polegate's parish church was designed by R.K. Blessley and built in 1874–76. The Early English Gothic Revival-style building has a stone exterior but red brickwork inside, and a substantial timber roof. A tower topped by a broach spire sits at the northwest corner, and there is a transept on the north side. The lancet windows have tracery.
St George's Church		Polegate 50°49′08″N 0°14′34″E / 50.8188°N 0.2427°E / 50.8188; 0.2427 (St Gregory's Church, Polegate)	Roman Catholic	D –	The architect ("Mr Hughes") of this prominently sited church, built in 1938 and registered two years later, is unknown; attribution to J. O'Hanlon Hughes is based on his work at nearby Seaford three years earlier. The gable-roofed flint and stone Gothic Revival church has a porch jutting beyond the west end of the nave.
Cornerstone Seventh Day Adventist Church		Polegate 50°49′27″N 0°14′33″E / 50.8243°N 0.2425°E / 50.8243; 0.2425 (Cornerstone Seventh Day Adventist Church, Polegate)	Seventh-day Adventist	D –	In 2000, this congregation moved into a former school on the Hailsham Road and established a church there. The building, originally a National School, dates from 1850; after its closure in 1967, it was used by the Mencap charity until 1991.
Polegate Free Church		Polegate 50°49′23″N 0°14′39″E / 50.8230°N 0.2441°E / 50.8230; 0.2441 (Polegate United Reformed Church, Polegate)	United Reformed Church	D –	This United Reformed church building was built for Congregationalists in 1904 and was registered for marriages two years later.

Heathfield Chapel		Punnett's Town 50°57′45″N 0°17′51″E / 50.9624°N 0.2974°E / 50.9624; 0.2974 (Heathfield Chapel, Punnett's Town)	Evangelical	C II	George Gilbert, the "Sussex Apostle" and a former soldier under General George Eliott, founded a chapel at a remote crossroads (later called Chapel Cross) in 1787. His revered preaching attracted so many people that the present larger chapel was built 22 years later. It was registered for marriages in October 1847.
St John the Baptist's Church		Ripe 50°52′07″N 0°09′00″E / 50.8685°N 0.1500°E / 50.8685; 0.1500 (St John the Baptist's Church, Ripe)	Anglican	A I	The huge castellated tower at the west end—a 15th-century addition—dominates this church, which has a 13th-century nave and a slightly later chancel. It is associated with the Pelham baronets, whose buckle motif appears above the doorway. Medieval stained glass and a font dating from about 1400 also survive.
St Denys' Church		Rotherfield 51°02′46″N 0°13′06″E / 51.0460°N 0.2184°E / 51.0460; 0.2184 (St Denys' Church, Rotherfield)	Anglican	A I	Berhtwald, a Saxon duke and Archbishop of Canterbury, travelled to France to visit the shrine of St Denys. He overcame the illness he sought to cure, and in 792 a church was founded in the saint's honour at Rotherfield. The present building has work from the 11th to the 15th centuries. Stained glass by Morris and Burne-Jones is considered exceptional.
Providence Chapel		Rotherfield 51°02′42″N 0°13′09″E / 51.0451°N 0.2192°E / 51.0451; 0.2192 (Providence Chapel, Rotherfield)	Strict Baptist	D –	Baptist worship began in Rotherfield in 1823, but the congregation split in the 1850s and seceders founded Providence Chapel in 1858. After early difficulties, the cause prospered (whereas the original "Bethel Chapel" folded in the 1870s), and it has been part of the Gospel Standard movement since the 1890s. The red-brick, stone-quoined chapel has arched windows. It was registered for the solemnisation of marriages in February 1867.
Selmeston Church		Selmeston 50°50′33″N 0°08′35″E / 50.8425°N 0.1431°E / 50.8425; 0.1431 (Selmeston Church, Selmeston)	Anglican	C II	Ewan Christian rebuilt this flint church in 1867; its present appearance is similar to how it looked when originally built in the medieval era. Surviving elements from the old church include a blocked doorway, piscina and Easter sepulchre. The churchyard may have been the site of pre-Christian worship. A 17th-century vicar is commemorated on a brass memorial as "Henry Rogers—a painefull Preacher in this church two & thirty yeeres" [sic].
St John the Evangelist's Church		St Johns, Crowborough 51°03′57″N 0°08′41″E / 51.0657°N 0.1448°E / 51.0657; 0.1448 (St John the Evangelist's Church, St Johns, Crowborough)	Anglican	D –	Built as a chapel of ease to Withyham in 1839, W.L. Blaker's ashlar building was extended in 1870 by the addition of a chancel with an apse at the east end. Charles Eamer Kempe designed the stained glass in the lancet windows. Originally known as Crowborough Chapel and now within the Crowborough urban area, the church gave its name to the part of that town it is in.
Forest Fold Strict Baptist Chapel		St Johns, Crowborough 51°04′17″N 0°09′12″E / 51.0715°N 0.1533°E / 51.0715; 0.1533 (Forest Fold Strict Baptist Chapel, St Johns, Crowborough)	Strict Baptist	D –	A dream inspired a local farmer to found this chapel in a barn in 1832, and its success prompted extensions, stables and a Sunday school to be built soon afterwards. It was registered for marriages in May 1872. Two daughter chapels (both now closed) were also founded elsewhere in the town. The chapel has also been known as Two Chimneys. Ebenezer Littleton, pastor for 52 years, was an important figure in Crowborough life.

Hodgeman's 1924 church, a chapel of ease to Westham, closed in 1978 but opened again ten years later after extensive house-building boosted the potential congregation. It was parished in 1995. A Vernacular brick and tile-hung building has a hammerbeam roof and a prominent tower.
The Rest Christian Centre		Three Cups Corner 50°57′27″N 0°19′35″E / 50.9574°N 0.3263°E / 50.9574; 0.3263 (The Rest Christian Centre, Three Cups Corner)	Baptist	D –	Mount Hermon Baptist Chapel was founded in 1865. Seceders from it founded a chapel nearby at Three Cups Corner in 1872.

St John the Baptist's Church		Tidebrook 51°02′48″N 0°18′05″E / 51.0468°N 0.3014°E / 51.0468; 0.3014 (St John the Baptist's Church, Tidebrook)	Anglican	C II	Thomas Rushforth's 1856 church in this isolated hamlet occupies a steeply sloping site, so it has a tall west end and an undercroft. The stone-built Early English-style building has a belfry on the chancel roof, which has substantial arch braces inside.
