St. Mary's is an electoral ward in Adur, West Sussex, England, sitting close to the River Adur and the shoreline around Shoreham Harbour. The ward blends coastal and urban influences, with a mix of older terraces and post‑war housing, local shops and small commercial units, plus easy rail and road links that make commuting to Brighton and Worthing straightforward.
Its character reflects a maritime and industrial past alongside active community life today: conservation pockets and older buildings sit beside modern developments, while community centres, local clubs and neighbourhood groups help knit a mixed, largely residential population together. Economically the area leans on local retail, harbour‑related businesses and service industries, and socially it shows the variety common to smaller coastal towns in the region.
