As well as Fernhurst village itself, the Parish includes the settlements of Henley Common, Kingsley Green and Bell Vale, lies within the boundaries of the South Downs National Park and is surrounded by hills. Fernhurst Parish Council is the lowest tier of local government serving the Parish and sits below Chichester District Council and West Sussex County Council. The Parish Council is made up of a team of eleven volunteer Council Members, all parishioners and drawn from a wide and diverse range of backgrounds. All Councillors have completed their Registers of Interests, which have been submitted to the Monitoring Officer at Chichester District Council. The Registers have been removed from this website temporarily to edit them following a recent regulatory change.
