Map of the UK

Kingston is a small, rural civil parish in the district of Arun, in West Sussex, England. It feels distinctly village-like, with an agricultural landscape of arable fields, hedgerows and pockets of meadow; the settlement is centred on a historic parish church and a few listed buildings that hint at a long local history of farms and country estates.

Geographically it sits close to the low-lying floodplain of the River Arun and within easy reach of the South Downs National Park, so it attracts walkers and birdwatchers as much as farmers. Socially and economically the area remains largely agricultural with some small local businesses and commuters travelling to nearby towns such as Littlehampton and Arundel, while village life revolves around the church, village hall and occasional community events.
