Lewes average rent was below the South East average, but the annual rate was higher
The ONS Private Rental Prices Index average rent for Lewes was £1,343 in September 2026. It covers new and existing tenancies, so it is statistical context rather than an advertised rent or a direct comparable for an individual property. The South East England average was £1,438, and Lewes was 6.6% lower. Lewes also recorded a 5.4% annual rise, with the local annual rate 1.9 percentage points higher than the regional rate.
