Area summary
BN24 sits in Wealden District Council, East Sussex. The outcode covers Pevensey, Westham, Pevensey Bay, Stone Cross and surrounding villages. Pevensey is historically significant as the site of William the Conqueror's 1066 landing, and Pevensey Castle (Grade I-listed Roman and Norman fortress, an English Heritage site) sits in the village. The Pevensey Levels are a Site of Special Scientific Interest covering low-lying grazing marshes east of Pevensey, with significant flood risk. Housing is mixed: older village cottages in Pevensey and Westham, Victorian and Edwardian villas, 1930s semis and bungalows, and significant newer estate development on the southern fringes.
Pevensey and Westham station and Pevensey Bay station sit on the East Coastway line. The A259 South Coast Road provides road links.
Employment patterns are commuter into Eastbourne and Hastings, with some local retail and tourism. Demographics skew older with a meaningful retired population.
Wealden District operates only mandatory HMO licensing. The Renters' Rights Act 2026 has abolished Section 21 evictions. The proposed 2030 EPC C standard, if enacted, will be a substantial cost on older village stock with solid walls.
