History
Ticehurst is not mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086; the manor came into being in the 14th century. Pashley Manor is also mentioned at the same time, and is within the parish.
The village's name derives from Old English; there are two possible derivations. The most plausible one is that it means ‘wood on the Teise’ from the river; the second roughly translates as 'The wooded hill where young goats graze', ticce(n) + hyrst. (1248, Tycheherst)
