About

Peverel ward lies in the north-eastern part of the Adur district, primarily encompassing the residential neighbourhood of Fishersgate. The area is characterised by a mix of housing, from interwar semis to modern estates, situated on the rising ground above the coastal plain. Its eastern boundary is formed by the main Brighton railway line, a significant transport corridor.

The ward includes the northern section of Southwick, with local facilities centred along Upper Shoreham Road. A notable feature is the presence of the old Fishersgate railway station building, now repurposed, which speaks to the area's historical development alongside this key route. Open spaces include the playing fields of The Sir Robert Woodard Academy, providing green areas within the urban setting.
