Prior to the Industrial Revolution, Lamberhurst was a centre for the Wealden iron industry, originally set up during Roman times. Since then it had some importance for the hop industry; was home to Margaret Thatcher; acquired an extensive golf course; has controversially been by-passed; and played a major role in English wine production. The Church of England parish church is east of the village. The Church of St Mary The Virgin, is a Grade I listed building and includes stained glass by John Piper. Lamberhurst civil parish on formation when they first became possible in the 19th century was in both Kent and East Sussex. The line of the county border was adjusted following the Local Government Act 1894, which required that parish boundaries be aligned with counties.〔(Modern British Surnames : ''Selected Events in the History of Civil Registration and Boundary Changes 1801-1996'' ) Retrieved 2009-08-22〕
