East Grinstead's High Street is one of the best-preserved medieval streets in Sussex, lined with timber-framed and Georgian-fronted buildings, while the wider town includes Victorian terraces, 20th-century suburbs and newer estates.

Planning considerations

East Grinstead High Street and surrounding streets are within a conservation area with numerous listed buildings, so work affecting the exterior of properties here is more tightly controlled than in the newer suburbs.
