Upper Dicker is a small village in the district of Wealden in East Sussex, in the south‑east of England. Set in the rolling countryside of the Weald and close to the ridge of the South Downs, it sits among farmland, ancient hedgerows and pockets of old woodland, giving a distinctly rural character.
Historically the area reflects the wider Wealden story of agriculture and small‑scale industry, and the village retains traditional timber‑framed cottages, lanes and village greens rather than large commercial centres. Today Upper Dicker is a quiet residential community with local traditions and rural pastimes, popular with walkers and those seeking country life within reach of larger towns and the Sussex coast.
