Denton is a small village inside the town of Newhaven, East Sussex, England. Named after Denton Island, in the middle of Newhaven Harbour, it adjoins the suburbs of South Heighton and Mount Pleasant. It backs onto the South Downs and local church records suggest it is featured in the Domesday book. The village has a school and one pub, the "Flying Fish".

Ralph Reader who created the Gang Show for the Boy Scout movement was from the village and the local Scout pack are known as "The 2nd Denton & South Heighton (Ralph Reader's Own)".
