About

Ferring ward occupies a coastal strip within the Arun district, directly bordering the English Channel. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of detached houses and bungalows, with a central high street serving local needs. Its western boundary is defined by the Ferring Rife, a watercourse that flows to the sea. The shingle beach and wide greensward provide open, recreational space along the entire shoreline.

The land rises gently from the coast, with much of the ward lying on a raised beach terrace. A significant portion of the northern area consists of cultivated fields and nurseries, maintaining a semi-rural character. The remains of a medieval village, including the ancient St. Andrew’s Church, are situated inland from the modern centre. This historical core sits amidst the preserved open landscape of Goring Gap, which separates Ferring from neighbouring settlements.
