Until 17 March 1958 the village was served by Newick and Chailey railway station on the East Grinstead to Lewes line, part of which remains as the Bluebell Railway. Chailey village is south-west of Newick.

In 1934 Dirk Bogarde (Derek Bogaerde as he then was) was appearing in amateur dramatic productions in the village.
