St Mary the Virgin, the parish church of present day Buxted, as seen from Buxted Park. The earlier (13th century) St Margaret's Church Buxted (earlier spelling Buxstead) is situated in the private lands of Buxted Park. In rearranging the Park estate and its deer park around 1836 (in the time of ownership by one Charles Cecil Cope Jenkinson, third Earl of Liverpool) the village dwellings were demolished and the new village centre with new parish church constructed a mile away to the east, across the River Uck.
