Pevensey is an electoral ward in the Arun district of West Sussex, sitting close to the coast and incorporating low-lying marshland and stretches of shoreline around Pevensey Bay. The area is notable for its historic landscape, anchored by the ruins of Pevensey Castle, whose Roman and Norman layers attract visitors and give a strong sense of local heritage amid agricultural surroundings.
Economically the ward combines agriculture, small-scale tourism and a number of residents who commute to larger nearby towns, while socially it has a mix of long-established village life and newer coastal dwellers; conservation interests around the saltmarshes and historical sites play a significant role in local planning and community identity.
