The Village of Highbrook

Highbrook is situated about 2 miles south of West Hoathly. It is a small hamlet with no shops or pubs but it has a splended church that looks older than it actually is. Despite its small size, Highbrook boasts a very loyal and active community centred around the church and the recently modernised village hall.

All Saints Church, Highbrook was founded in 1884. During the 20th Century, the Clarke family made it substantially their family church and were responsible for much of its funding and day to day running. Evidence of this is provided by the large group of Clarke graves and memorials to the south of the church and by the memorial plaques on the north wall of the choir.

Highbrook Village Hall is an important community centre in the heart of the village. Since major refurbishments in 1999 and 2002 it provides a comfortable, centrally heated, well-equipped kitchen and accommodation for events for up to 100 people (standing) or 60 sitting at tables. During 2002 the roof and ceiling and roof were renovated and the beautiful and architecturally interesting "scissor beam" structure exposed as originally intended giving the hall an impressive yet intimate atmosphere for private events.
