Uckfield is a small town lying on the A22 Lewes to London
main road. The name Uckfield is derived from the river Uck which
flows through the village. Uckfield was a small village until
the advent of the railways in the 1850's, since when it grew
quickly into a small town. The village was originally located
at the top of the high street near to the church, but the railway
was constructed alongside the river attracting businesses, and
the houses and shops now spread from one to the other. Uckfield
was famous for its wool and agricultural trade for many years
as it lay on a river crossing. A proportion of the produce from
the area was transported by barge down the Uck to the Ouse, then
to Lewes and finally to the coast at Seaford and Newhaven. |
