Oving is a small rural civil parish in the district of Chichester, West Sussex, England, lying a few miles to the north‑west of Chichester city centre. The landscape is a mix of arable farmland, pasture and scattered historic cottages and farmhouses, with the parish long shaped by agriculture while also serving as a dormitory area for nearby towns.

The village has medieval roots and a compact historic core around the parish church and traditional buildings, and it benefits from proximity to attractions such as the Goodwood estate and the coastal and recreational landscapes of Chichester Harbour and the South Downs. Local life tends to revolve around village amenities and community events, with many residents commuting into Chichester and other nearby centres for work.
