Poling is a small, rural village and civil parish in the district of Arun, West Sussex, England, lying a few miles from Arundel and close to the foothills of the South Downs. The settlement is tucked into the agricultural lowlands and the valley of the River Arun, with quiet lanes, hedgerows and a scattered pattern of farms and a few historic houses rather than a dense village centre.
Historically the area has medieval roots and retains a modest parish church and several listed buildings, reflecting its long farming heritage; economically it remains largely rural with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Social life is that of a small community - low‑key local events and links to larger market towns provide services and culture while the surrounding landscape attracts walkers and those seeking access to the Downs and the coast.
