Fernhurst is an English civil parish within the district of Chichester and the county of West Sussex
As well as Fernhurst village itself, the Parish includes the settlements of Henley Common, Kingsley Green and Bell Vale, lies within the boundaries of the South Downs National Park and is surrounded by hills. Fernhurst Parish Council is the lowest tier of local government serving the Parish and sits below Chichester District Council and West Sussex County Council.
