Buxted is a village and civil parish in the district of Wealden, in East Sussex, England, set in the rolling, wooded landscape of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The parish includes the historic Buxted Park estate with its old parkland and a large country house now used for hospitality, and the nearby River Ouse runs through the locality, giving the area a mix of farmland, ancient woodland and hedgerow-rich lanes.
Locally the economy and community life still reflect rural roots - farming, small businesses and village amenities such as a church, school and pubs - while good transport links, including a station on the Uckfield branch of the Oxted Line with services towards Uckfield and London, make it a popular spot for commuters and those seeking village life within reach of the city. The parish also carries a visible historic imprint from traditional Wealden industries and retains a strong community calendar of clubs and events.
