Iford is a small, largely rural civil parish a few miles south of Lewes in East Sussex, England. It sits close to the valley of the River Ouse and the rolling chalk landscape of the South Downs National Park, with farms, hedgerows and a network of public footpaths that make it popular for walking and wildlife watching.

The community has historically been agricultural, with a handful of historic farmhouses and a village church at its centre, but today many residents commute to nearby towns while enjoying the quiet rural setting. Proximity to Lewes means easy access to markets, festivals and cultural amenities, so Iford strikes a balance between traditional countryside character and links to local economy and events.
