Hartfield is a largely rural civil parish in the district of Wealden in East Sussex, England, sitting within the rolling sandstone ridges and ancient woodlands of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The area is made up of a main village nucleus and scattered hamlets and farms, with an economy anchored in agriculture, local services and a steady flow of visitors attracted by walking, cycling and countryside recreation.
Culturally and historically the parish is best known for its close association with Ashdown Forest, the landscape that inspired Winnie-the-Pooh, and the much‑photographed Poohsticks Bridge over the River Medway. The village retains traditional pubs, a parish church and a lively community calendar, so alongside heritage and nature it offers the kind of small‑scale social life typical of East Sussex country parishes.
