East Grinstead
East Grinstead, Market town and civil parish in Mid Sussex, England.
East Grinstead is a market town and civil parish in Mid Sussex, England, known for its historic High Street. It features continuous rows of 14th-century timber-framed buildings that display construction techniques from that era.
The town received its market charter in 1121 and grew as a trading center for agriculture. The iron industry later added to the economic character of the settlement.
The Queen Victoria Hospital became known after 1939 for treating burns among Royal Air Force pilots. The patients formed the Guinea Pig Club, whose story remains part of the local identity today.
The station connects the town to London Victoria and serves as the northern terminus of the Bluebell Railway. The heritage steam line runs regularly and takes visitors through the Sussex countryside.
The Greenwich Meridian runs through East Court within the town. Visitors can stand with one foot in the eastern hemisphere and the other in the western hemisphere.
