PARISH OF UCKFIELD

PAR496

PARISH OF UCKFIELD

1538-2002

The church was rebuilt by William Moseley in 1839 on the site of an earlier and smaller church, of which the tower and parts of the chancel walls were incorporated into the new structure. It is dedicated to the Holy Cross, and was extended in 1889.

Until 1846 the church was a chapel-of-ease to Buxted. It then became a separate parish with its own perpetual curate, who became a rector in 1865.

A chapel-of-ease, St Saviour, Framfield Road, opened in 1904 and was a temporary structure of wood and iron; it remained in use until 1971. A new building opened in 1972 in part of a block of flats for the elderly.
