About

Liss ward encompasses the village of Liss itself and the nearby hamlet of Liss Forest, situated in the valley of the River Rother. The area is characterised by a mix of residential streets and areas of woodland, with the railway line providing a direct link to London. The local landscape includes pockets of common land and fields that border the river, shaping the ward's semi-rural character.

The community is served by local shops and schools centred on the village. A notable feature is the presence of the former Liss Forest Hospital site, which has been redeveloped for housing. The ward's proximity to the South Downs National Park influences its setting, though it remains a distinct settlement with its own administrative identity within the wider district.
