Sedlescombe is a village and civil parish in the Rother district of East Sussex, England.

[2] In the reign of Edward the Confessor (1042–66) Countess Godgifu was overlord of the manor of Sedlescombe.

The Domesday Book of 1086 records that, by that date, the Norman nobleman Robert, Count of Eu held the manor of Sedlescombe.

His tenant-in-chief was one Walter, son of Lambert,[3] who also held manors at Crowhurst, Hazelhurst and Ripe.

[6] Durhamford Manor in Stream Lane is an early 16th-century timber-framed house.

The chancel's north and south windows have stained glass made by CE Kempe in 1890.

[18] The village has a post office and general store[19] and a Church of England primary school.
