Mid Sussex
§ This page provides an overview of a UK's local authority district, bringing together various information to help you better understand this district.
Mid Sussex, between London and the South Downs, combines market towns, villages, and countryside. Haywards Heath is the main centre, while Burgess Hill and East Grinstead add suburban character. The Ashdown Forest, linked with A.A. Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh, offers heathland and woodlands. The South Downs National Park provides hills, chalk downs, and scenic valleys to the south. Rivers, farmland, and historic villages complete the district’s varied landscape.
The local authority for this district is: Mid Sussex District Council - responsible for district-level services. Since West Sussex is a two-tier area, county-level services are handled by: West Sussex County Council.
