Combe Valley Park Combe Valley Countryside Park is an 600 acre area of marshlands, woodland and beach between Bexhill and St Leonards.

Originally called the Pebsham Countryside Park, the park was first mooted in 1993 as part of the North Bexhill Strategic Framework. 

In 2008 the Pebsham Countryside Park Project Management Board was formed comprising representatives from Hastings Borough Council, Rother District Council, East Sussex County Council and Crowhurst Parish Council.

In 2012 the Management Board renamed the park Combe Valley Countryside Park following feedback from the public that the name Pebsham did not reflect the full extent of the greenspace within the Combe Haven area. The proposed Countryside Park covers an area of 600 hectares within Rother District and Hastings Borough. 

The Hastings to Bexhill link road, Combe Valley Way construction, started in 2013 to the north of the park area, which cuts through the park.
