About

Mash Barn is a residential ward located in the north of the Adur district, primarily consisting of housing estates developed in the latter part of the 20th century. The area is characterised by a mix of detached and semi-detached homes, with several local parks and green spaces providing recreational areas. Its layout is functional, centred around serving the daily needs of its inhabitants with essential local amenities and schools.

The ward is bordered by the A27 trunk road to the north, which defines its boundary and provides a major transport link. A notable local feature is the presence of the old Shoreham Airport perimeter, with its historic art deco terminal building situated just beyond the ward's eastern edge. This proximity to aviation history subtly influences the area's identity, contrasting with its otherwise quiet, suburban character.
