Orchard is an electoral ward within the district of Arun in West Sussex, England. It is primarily residential, with a mix of inter‑war and post‑war housing alongside some more recent developments, local shops and community facilities; its position on the south coast hinterland means many residents commute to nearby coastal towns and larger centres for work.
The ward still shows traces of its agricultural past in small green spaces and allotments and is served by active parish and district councillors focused on housing, transport and community services. Social life tends to centre on schools, churches and volunteer groups, and modest regeneration projects aim to balance protecting local character with improving amenities.
