Haywards Heath Building Society was a UK building society founded in 1890,[1] in Haywards Heath, West Sussex as the Haywards Heath and District Building Society.[1] It changed its name to Haywards Heath Building Society in 1989 and merged with the Yorkshire Building Society in 1992.[2] The merger provided the core of Yorkshire Building Society's expansion outside of Yorkshire.[3]

The society self-published its history to celebrate its centenary in 1990.[4] The author, Wyn K Ford, later wrote a paper in 1992 for the Sussex Archaeological Society about the society's first forty years.[5]
