Hailsham
Hailsham is a civil parish and the largest of the five towns that form the Wealden district of East Sussex. With a population of just over 20000 and around 8500 homes, it is also the largest inland town in East Sussex. Hailsham lies 7 miles north of Eastourne, 19 miles south of Tunbridge Wells, 14 miles west of Hastings and 11 miles east of the town of Lewes. Being 6 miles from the coast and between the densely wooded hills of the southern Forest Ridge and the countryside of the South Downs, the town is surrounded by appealing and untapped landscapes. Hailsham's classic business was rope making, which involved producing and providing ropes for public hanging to Great Britain and the Colonies. Even with the decline of the sector, light industry continues in two large commercial estates situated in the town. The Heritage Centre in Blackman's Yard, run by members of the Hailsham Historical and Natural History Society, lets visitors to access the town's past through the use of images and artefacts. Displays presenting kitchens, farming, agriculture, local industry and wartime memorabilia aim to provide a sense of the town's history over the past hundred years. Hailsham has a vast selection of local and national shops, eateries and several supermarkets. Many of these can be located in the Quintins shopping centre, which was opened in the late 1980s. Another popular tourist attraction for locals and visitors is the market based in Vicarage Field, set up in 2013 as one of Hailsham Town Team's key initiatives.
