Lewes s the county town of East Sussex, England. It is the police and judicial centre for all of Sussex and is home to Sussex Police, East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service, the Crown Court and HMP Lewes. The civil parish is the centre of the local government district and the seat of East Sussex County Council at East Sussex County Hall.
The High Street runs from Eastgate to West-Out, forming the spine of the ancient town. Cliffe Hill gives its name to the one-time village of Cliffe, now part of the town. The southern part of the town, Southover, came into being as a village adjacent to the Priory, south of the Winterbourne Stream. At the north of the town’s original wall boundary is the St. John’s or Pells area, home to several 19th-century streets and the Pells Pond.
The Pells Pool, built in 1860, is the oldest freshwater lido in England. The Phoenix Industrial Estate lies along the west bank of the river and contains a number of light industrial and creative industry uses, as well as car parks and a fire station. Wikipedia
