North Chailey is a small rural village in the civil parish of Chailey, in the district of Lewes, East Sussex, England. It sits amid farmland and remnant heathland, close to the mosaic of bogs, reedbeds and lowland heath of Chailey Common, and lies just to the north of the South Downs, making it a quiet spot popular with walkers.
The village retains a strong community feel with a mix of traditional cottages and more modern homes and is home to notable local institutions such as the specialist children’s services of the Chailey Heritage Foundation. The local economy remains largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby centres such as Lewes and Haywards Heath, while the area’s history of commoning and conservation gives it a distinctive rural character.
