About

North Bersted sits in the Arun district of West Sussex, immediately north of the built-up area of Bognor Regis. The area is largely residential, with a mixture of council-built estates from the mid-20th century and later private housing. Road patterns and small pockets of open grass create a sequence of local greens and playing fields woven through the neighbourhood. Local primary schools, a health centre and small parades of shops serve day-to-day needs rather than drawing visitors. The ward name appears on Arun District Council election maps, reflecting its role as a local administrative area.

Public transport links provide frequent bus connections into the town centre and along routes that cross the district. Community activity is centred on a few multi-use halls and sports pitches where youth and adult teams meet through the year. Small light-industrial units and workshop spaces sit on the edge of the residential area, separating homes from agricultural land beyond. Footpaths and cycle routes extend northward toward open countryside, offering direct access from the estate to wider walking routes.
