Wheatsheaf Common is a small, locally valued green on the edge of Chichester in West Sussex, England, a remnant of traditional common land now used for informal recreation. It provides a patch of semi-natural grassland, trees and hedgerows that supports birds and wildflowers and gives nearby residents easy open space within walking distance of the city.
Its history as common land sits alongside modern uses - dog walkers, families and neighbourhood gatherings - and the common helps to bolster local character and property desirability while keeping the city within easy reach of the South Downs and the coast around Chichester Harbour. Though modest in size, it is a quietly important social and ecological asset for the community.
