Fulking is a small rural village and civil parish in the district of Mid Sussex, in West Sussex, England. It sits by the scarp of the South Downs, with characteristic chalk downland, springs and small streams that feed the upper reaches of the local river systems; the landscape makes it popular with walkers and nature enthusiasts and keeps the feel distinctly rural while remaining within easy reach of the coast and urban centres such as Brighton.
The village has medieval roots and a scatter of traditional flint and brick cottages, reflecting its historic agricultural economy and some small-scale quarrying on the downs. Today Fulking is a tight‑knit community with a strong conservation ethos, modest local amenities and a mix of long‑standing farming families and commuters, so social life tends to revolve around village events, the church and local walking routes.
