Westhampnett is a small village and civil parish on the edge of the city of Chichester in West Sussex, England. It sits amid rolling downland and farmland and is best known for containing much of the Goodwood estate - including the Goodwood Racecourse, the Goodwood Motor Circuit and the Goodwood Aerodrome - which stage high-profile events such as the Revival and the Festival of Speed that bring large numbers of visitors and shape the local economy.
The village retains a strongly rural character with historic buildings clustered around the medieval parish church; agricultural roots and the influence of the estate mix with good commuter links to Chichester and beyond, so the community combines quiet village life with a notable calendar of motorsport, racing and aviation activity that makes it unusually lively for its size.
