About

West Chiltington Common sits within the Horsham district of West Sussex and comprises a patchwork of open grassland, hedged lanes and scattered houses. The common is threaded by public footpaths and bridleways that link small ponds and roadside verges to surrounding arable fields and old cider orchards. Veteran oak and ash trees mark field boundaries and there are stretches of hawthorn hedge that still show traditional laid work. Local lanes are narrow and often flanked by stone walls or low banks where spring flowers appear along the edges.

Land use here mixes grazing with smallholdings and domestic gardens, and the common is managed in parcels rather than as a single estate. In wetter months shallow hollows hold water and attract frogs and dragonflies; in dryer weather those hollows form part of grass rides used by walkers and riders. The settlement pattern is low-density, with cottages and converted farm buildings set back from the lanes, giving a clear sense of open space and countryside within the Horsham district.
