Peacehaven is a town and civil parish in the Lewes district of East Sussex, England. It is above the chalk cliffs of the South Downs about 6 miles (10 km) east of Brighton city centre, on the A259 road. It is the place where the Greenwich meridian crosses the English south coast. Peacehaven is next to Telscombe Cliffs, a later western extension to Peacehaven, which is in a separate parish and has a separate town council.
