Medieval High Street, twentieth-century town

East Grinstead's High Street is one of the finest runs of medieval timber-framed and Wealden-stone buildings in Sussex, and it is a conservation area where any outdoor unit must stay out of sight. Step away from it and the town is mostly twentieth century: Victorian houses around the station and Sunnyside, extensive post-war estates at Imberhorne and the western edge, and continuing new-build on the fringes. Felbridge, Ashurst Wood and Forest Row add village housing and larger homes on wooded plots towards Ashdown Forest. The usual brief is a single split for a loft bedroom or home office in a post-war semi, or a bedroom unit in a new-build. Engineers we match cover all of RH19.

East Grinstead FAQs
