Map of the UK

The small rural parish of Selmeston sits in the gentle rolling downland of Wealden, East Sussex, England. Surrounded by farmland and quiet lanes typical of the eastern Sussex countryside and within easy reach of the South Downs and the coast, it feels tucked away yet is not far from larger centres such as Lewes and Brighton.

The compact village is centred on a historic flint church and a handful of period houses with flint and tile-hung walls, and retains a largely agricultural character even as some residents commute to nearby towns. Local life is quiet and community-focused, with parish events and country pursuits like walking and riding popular among visitors and locals who come for the peace and the quintessential Sussex landscape.
