On a local level, Glynde and Beddingham is governed by Glynde and Beddingham Parish Council. Council meetings are held every two months in the Beddingham Reading Room.

There are five Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) within the parish. Firle Escarpment,[6] which extends into the neighbouring parish of Firle. Another site, completely within the parish is Asham Quarry[7] which is of geological interest due to its stratigraphy of Devensian and Flandrian deposits.

Southerham Grey Pit and Southerham Machine Bottom Pit are two more SSSIs of geological interest within the parish. These sites are disused chalk pits which display a wide variety of fossilised fish remains.[8][9] The final SSSI is Lewes Downs, a site of biological interest, which is an isolated area of the South Downs.[10]
