Chelwood Gate is a small rural village in the district of Wealden, in East Sussex, England. It sits on the southern edge of Ashdown Forest within the rolling, wooded landscape of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with heathland, ancient trackways and mixed woodland close by.
Shaped historically by commoning, grazing and small-scale rural industry, the village today mixes long-standing farming families with commuters and people drawn to country life; local amenities centre on a village hall and pubs, while the adjacent forest attracts walkers and tourists - partly for its wildlife and partly for its literary associations - and the local economy reflects agriculture, tourism and conservation activities.
