Hartfield High Street – Introduction

This is the whole of the High Street and Church Street as illustrated on the Parish Map of 1842
This is a small section of The Buckhurst Terrier (c.1597) showing Hartfield High Street with St Mary’s Church clearly marked – as is the ‘Towne Crofte’ and ‘Hartfielde Greene’. Unlike modern maps The Terrier is drawn bottom left NORTH, top left EAST, top right SOUTH, bottom right WEST. Thus the road lower left is the Edenbridge road and the road centre right is towards Forest Row.

Tony Goddard produced this wonderful 3-dimensional drawing for the Millennium Map.

Due to the number of pictures and the concentration of houses in the Central Section, the High Street has been split into 3 sections and Church Street has a separate section of its own.
