Isfield Place is a 17th-century manor house, incorporating part of the original 16th century mansion of the Shurley family. The village originally grew adjacent to the ford where the London to Lewes Way Roman road crossed the River Ouse. King Harold spent the night before the Battle of Hastings in the village.

Isfield geography / climate

The parish of Isfield, stands on the flood-plain of the River Ouse, at its confluence with the River Uck. The ancient ecclesiastical parish, which is very similar to the modern civil parish, was 1,822 acres (736 ha) in size. The village centre lies adjacent to the river crossing; a more modern part is further south.

Isfield lock and weir

The old Isfield Lock and weir has recently been restored by Sussex Ouse Restoration Trust. It is much loved, “The waters thunder down the weir to a sheltered pool, whilst above, the embayed river is still enough for water lilies”
