Nutbourne is a small rural hamlet in the district of Horsham, West Sussex, England, set amid mixed farmland and woodland on the northern fringe of the South Downs. It lies within easy reach of the Arun valley and nearby market towns such as Pulborough and the larger centre of Horsham, offering quiet country lanes and access to popular walking and cycling routes.
Historically shaped by agriculture, with traditional farmsteads and former hop and arable fields, the settlement now combines long‑standing rural families with commuters who travel to regional towns or London. The character is typically Sussex: flint and brick buildings, converted barns, and a strong local focus on outdoor pursuits and neighbouring village amenities rather than on any large commercial centre within the hamlet itself.
