About

Henfield and Small Dole form a rural area within the Horsham district, characterised by its position within the Adur river valley and the surrounding Low Weald landscape. The settlement pattern is primarily one of villages and scattered farms, with a mix of older timber-framed buildings and newer residential developments. The area is largely defined by agricultural land, hedgerows, and pockets of woodland, with the South Downs National Park forming a clear boundary to the south.

The local economy has historical roots in farming and market gardening, with some of these activities continuing today. A specific feature is the presence of the former Henfield Railway Station, a reminder of the line that once connected the village to Shoreham and Horsham. The area offers access to walking routes along the river and through the surrounding countryside, with a focus on quieter, rural living rather than urban amenities.
