Findon is a downland village in the district of Arun, in West Sussex, England, set on the lower slopes of the South Downs a few miles north of the coastal town of Worthing. The village clusters around a traditional green and pond and sits close to the prehistoric earthworks and flint mines of Cissbury Ring, with the South Downs Way and open chalk downland on its doorstep.
Historically an agricultural settlement, Findon retains a strong village identity with a conservation area, older stone and flint buildings and a medieval parish church; today its economy mixes farming, local services and commuters to nearby towns. The area is popular with walkers and anyone interested in archaeology and rural Sussex life, and the community maintains village events and amenities that reflect a lively small‑scale social scene.
