Lewes is the historic county town of East Sussex, perched dramatically above the River Ouse with a Norman castle, medieval street plan, and famously independent spirit. The town is renowned for its spectacular Bonfire Night celebrations, the largest in England, and hosts Harvey's Brewery, the last independent brewery in Sussex. Its conservation-led character creates limited but highly valued commercial space.
“Historic county town with premium property values. Strong independent retail. South Downs National Park gateway attracting visitors.”
