Map of the UK

Horam is a village and civil parish in the district of Wealden, in East Sussex, England. Set on the rolling countryside of The Weald, it has a distinctly rural feel with lanes, hedgerows and pockets of woodland, while being close to larger market towns such as Heathfield and Hailsham, so it sits comfortably between quiet village life and accessible services.

Historically shaped by farming and the wider Wealden landscape, the parish today blends traditional agriculture with a mix of local trades and residents who commute to nearby towns. Community life centres on the village hall, small shops and pubs, sports and social clubs, and an active neighbourhood spirit that keeps local events and conservation of the surrounding countryside an important part of daily life. The built environment reflects modest 19th- and 20th-century growth alongside newer homes, giving it a modest, lived-in character rather than a tourist profile.
