Shermanbury is a small, rural village and civil parish in the Horsham district of West Sussex, England, lying on the floodplain of the River Adur. It is characterised by riverside meadows, a scattering of historic country houses (notably Shermanbury Place) and an old parish church, giving a distinctly agricultural and historic feel rather than a built‑up centre.
Economically the area remains largely agricultural with a mix of converted farm buildings and rural residences, and socially it attracts walkers, birdwatchers and equestrian interests who enjoy the quiet lanes and riverside paths. Community life is small-scale and traditional, centred on local events and village amenities, and the village’s setting and history make it a quietly picturesque example of rural Sussex.
