Hailsham is a town in the Wealden district of East Sussex, England. It has a population of over 18,000.
The town originally grew as an agricultural centre but is now mostly a commuter town. There is currently much controversy over the sale of Hailsham Cattle Market and it's redevelopment into a supermarket. Hailsham market is one of few remaining cattle markets along the south coast, and if closed, would probably be a great loss to the town. The local MP, Charles Hendry, has got involved and is fighting to keep the market open.
