About

Billingshurst ward sits in the northern part of the Horsham district, encompassing the large village of Billingshurst itself along with surrounding rural settlements and farmland. The area is defined by the A29 road running through its centre, connecting it to broader transport networks. The landscape includes the wooded areas near the River Arun, which flows along the ward's eastern boundary, contributing to its mix of residential and agricultural character.

A notable local landmark is the historic Billingshurst Parish Church of St Mary, with its distinctive spire visible across the area. The ward functions as a key service centre for its surrounding communities, containing local shops, schools, and a railway station on the Arun Valley Line. This infrastructure supports a settled community within a largely green and open West Sussex setting.
