Features and description

Highgate Works was originally the builders yard of the once well-known H&E Waters company whose business failed in 1991. The original roof-lines of the old ramshackle yard, half a mile south of the two Forest Row roundabouts, have been retained in a complete rebuilding of the old timber structures that survived for most of the twentieth century.
Highgate nine was the main packing room of First Impressions, the mail order giftware company. The packing tables are retained but can be easily removed if required. The brick-built unit is entered via the double doors in Tomtits Lane. One large room with fitted kitchen and toilet. There are plenty of power points. It is rated by the Wealden District Council for B1 use: “B1 Business - Offices (other than those that fall within A2), research and development of products and processes, light industry appropriate in a residential area.”
