The parish includes the hamlets of Barns Green and Coolham and is centred on a High Street that runs past the parish church of St Mary. Local shops, small businesses and working farms sit alongside residential streets; a railway station on the Arun Valley Line provides regular trains to Horsham and Pulborough, and a level of through-traffic reflects the village’s role as a local service centre.

Community life includes sports clubs, village halls and an annual calendar of events; Barns Green stages a well-known half marathon each year that brings runners and supporters into the parish.
