There are links to English Heritage's data for the many listed buildings in the descriptions of many of the individual photos.
The odd TV aerial or item of street furniture has been removed from some of these photos, to avoid distracting from these interesting buildings.

At about 5.25pm this train will be bringing shoppers and the first London commuters, of the day, to Lewes and then collecting Lewes' workers to go on to Polegate, Hampden Park and Eastbourne.
This is one of the quirkiest buildings on the High Street, with its canted side. This part of High Street would seem to have been called School Hill at some point in the past. Even on Google Maps it is shown with that label on it although High Street is shown on either side.

This series of photos of Lewes was taken while I was killing time, after shopping, as I had just missed a half-hourly train home. I wasn't sure how they would come out as the light wasn't good. This is the south side of the street and so is more in shade. I think that the ISO was 800 for most of them. As they are not for prints, I think they are OK. In fact the shop lights make the pictures more lively.
Originally built in 1780 this house, with its carriage entrance to the right, has been converted into a shop. The English Heritage listing is at list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1043861

Although this appears to be a half-timbered building, the timbers on the first floor are merely decorative. I wonder how many other buildings there are where the timbers are not structural.
The English Heritage listing shows that this building was originally built in the 16th Century and 'refronted' in the 18th and modified subsequently, the 20th century with new shop frontages. The listing is at list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1043788
