[8] There is an active village club, which runs regular social events, and a monthly newsletter "News & Views" which is produced by a team of volunteers.

Ticehurst House Hospital (now part of the Priory Group) specialises in the treatment of psychiatric disorders and is located on the western edge of the village.

Samuel Newington opened the original Ticehurst House in 1792, as a place dedicated to the care and treatment of psychiatric illness.

The village is also home to Maynard's Fruit Farm, made The Times "Top 50 places to eat outside in Britain" list.

[11] Outside the village there are dairies at Northiam and Stonegate, a bakery at Bodiam, family butcher in Etchingham, a smokery in Flimwell and two more pubs at Three Leg Cross and Dale Hill.

The Scottish singer/guitarist Bert Jansch lived in Ticehurst in the late 1960s and recorded tracks for his 1971 Rosemary Lane album in his house in the village.

[13] The village church, St Mary's, was the venue for the wedding of her son, the journalist and theatre critic Benedict Nightingale, to the author Anne Redmon.
