The Rehoboth Chapel is a Strict Baptist place of worship in the village of Jarvis Brook in the English county of East Sussex.

The red- and blue-brick building dates from 1876. Its Gospel Standard Strict Baptist congregation, founded in 1852, maintains links with the Forest Fold chapel on the other side of Crowborough. Seceders from that chapel founded the Jarvis Brook cause in 1852; they met in a schoolroom at first.

The chapel is licensed for worship in accordance with the Places of Worship Registration Act 1855 and has the registration number 24990. [1]

Crowborough Community Church is an Evangelical church in the town of Crowborough in East Sussex, England. Although it is now associated with the Newfrontiers charismatic Evangelical movement, for most of its existence it was called Christ Church and belonged to the Free Church of England, an episcopal Protestant denomination founded in the 19th century. The building, a red-brick Gothic Revival chapel with a prominent stained glass window facing the street, has stood in a central position in the town since 1879, when it was built at the expense of philanthropist Elizabeth de Lannoy. The complex includes schoolrooms and a lecture hall, part of which served as Crowborough's public library for many years.
