Earnley is a small rural village and civil parish on the Manhood Peninsula in the district of Chichester, West Sussex, England. It lies close to the coast, with the salt marshes and shallow inlets around Bracklesham Bay and Chichester Harbour nearby, and the surrounding landscape is largely farmland, grazing marsh and small woodlands that give it a strong coastal-countryside character.
Historically the community has agricultural roots with long-standing links to coastal fisheries and marshland management, while today local life mixes farming and small businesses with commuters into Chichester. The village retains a traditional parish church and traces of older manorial settlement, and its quiet lanes, coastal habitats and birdlife make it popular with walkers, birdwatchers and those looking for a peaceful slice of seaside countryside.
