Why Move to East Grinstead
This historic and prosperous market town, with excellent schools and easy access to London and Gatwick by train or road, sits in the north-eastern corner of West Sussex. The county brings together a dynamic and complementary balance of green, village life, and calm modern development.
The historic Tudor half-timbered town centre is full of interesting independent stores and boutiques and gives residents a pleasant place to meander, shop and socialise. East Grinstead offers a stunning setting for a peaceful well connected but near rural lifestyle. Its abundance of trains makes getting in and out of London extremely easy, an hour’s direct journey to London Victoria Station. These convenient transport links mean that plenty of residents also work in nearby Crawley and Gatwick.
The town was given a charter by Henry III in 1247 to hold a weekly market and an annual fair. This weekly Thursday market is an East Grinstead tradition and still operating today although the stalls offer a rather more modern choice of goods.
If you are looking for a safe sanctuary but just a short and undemanding commute to work, East Grinstead is worth further investigation.
