About

Arlington ward covers a rural expanse in the Wealden district, characterised by its agricultural fields and pockets of woodland. The settlement of Arlington itself is a small village centred around its historic church. The area is largely defined by the Cuckmere River, which meanders through the landscape, shaping the surrounding farmland and water meadows.

The ward includes the notable Arlington Reservoir, a significant body of water providing a habitat for birdlife. The landscape is part of the wider South Downs National Park, featuring gentle chalk downland slopes. The area's economy has long been connected to farming and land management, with a quiet, dispersed population across its hamlets and farms.
