About

Horsham West covers the western side of Horsham town centre and is mainly residential, with a mix of Victorian terraces, interwar and postwar semi-detached houses and a number of more recent developments. Local life centres on small shopping parades, primary schools, churches and community halls. There are allotments and playing fields serving neighbourhood teams and informal recreation, and a short walk brings residents into the town centre where the market and civic facilities are concentrated.

The layout gives straightforward access to local services and regular bus links to surrounding villages. The upper reaches of the River Arun pass close to parts of the west side, creating a stretch of riverside within walking distance for some streets. Small commercial units and light industrial premises sit at the edge of the residential area, providing local employment without long journeys. Community groups run projects from village halls and school sites, and residents tend to use nearby green spaces and sports pitches for events and weekend activity.
