The village and civil parish of Linchmere sits in the northern part of the Chichester district of West Sussex, close to the Surrey boundary and within easy reach of the small towns of Haslemere and Liphook. The landscape is characteristically rural - rolling farmland, pockets of ancient woodland and commons with a network of footpaths and country lanes that make it popular with walkers.
Historically agricultural with centuries-old roots, the parish retains a quiet village character centred on a small church, village hall and a local pub, while a number of older cottages and farmhouses hint at its past. The local economy is still driven by farming and small enterprises, with many residents commuting to nearby towns, and community life revolves around seasonal fetes, village groups and the parish council.
