Heathfield is a small market town in East Sussex, England. The town lies near the junction of two main roads: the A267 in between Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne; and the A265 from Hawkhurst. It is almost equidistant from Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne: about 16 mi (26 kilometres). Historically, Heathfield lay on an ancient trackway (The Ridgeway), linking the South Downs with the Weald. Its market charter was granted in February 1316 during the reign of Edward II. The Wealden iron brought prosperity to the town through the 16th and 17th centuries; the arrival of the train (the Cuckoo Line) in 1880 gave it another new lease of life. The latter was not a financial success and the branch line in between Eridge and Polegate closed in 1968. The trackbed is now named the Cuckoo Trail, part of the National Cycle Network. The initial village, described as Old Heathfield, is now only part of the town, which has expanded in time. The town holds an annual fair called the Heffle Cuckoo Fair each April, and the annual Heathfield show takes place each May in the summertime. There is an Anglo/French market called Le Marché held annually on the August Bank Holiday and a fair that visits throughout the Summer season. There is a rather big football field and a little play ground. At Cross-in-Hand there is a rugby club for adults and children. Within the town, there are 2 flower designers, numerous churches, a few hair and beauty salons, 2 boutiques, an electrical store, 2 bookshops, 2 ironmongers, 5 charity shops, 2 pubs, a green grocer, a butcher, a baker, 2 antique shops, a supermarket, and a variety of banks, estate agents, and restaurants.
