Stone Cross is a semi‑rural ward in the Wealden district of East Sussex, England. It sits on the edge of the coastal plain with easy road links to Eastbourne and Brighton, and comprises a mix of housing, small commercial units and surrounding farmland rather than a dense urban centre.
The area has a village feel with local shops, pubs and community facilities, and an economy made up of commuters, light industry and agriculture. Its name hints at historic roadside markers and the ward offers quick access to countryside and coastal heritage - the low wetlands of the Pevensey Levels and the medieval ruins of Pevensey Castle are within a short drive.
