About

Barnham ward lies in the low-lying coastal plain of Arun, characterised by its mix of residential development and open farmland. The area is defined by the railway line that bisects it, connecting to larger centres, and the nearby presence of the A29 road. Housing estates, including bungalows and newer builds, are concentrated around the village core and station, while the surrounding landscape remains largely agricultural, with fields stretching towards the parish boundaries.

The community is served by local shops, a primary school, and a village hall, forming a functional centre. A notable feature is the proximity to the wildfowl habitats and wetland landscapes of the wider Arun Valley, which influences the flat, open character of the area. The overall impression is of a settled, practical locality where transport links and rural surroundings coexist.
