Visit Chesworth Farm
This 90-acre (36-hectare) site is managed as farmland bordering the River Arun. It features numerous public footpaths and bridleways, incorporating grassland, wet meadow, ancient hedgerows and access to the greater countryside. There are also a few unofficial, well-trodden paths which are further encouragement to make your own circular route.
It can also be explored via the Horsham to Southwater cycle route, (Pedlars Way) or as part of Horsham’s Riverside Walk, following the River Arun. Chesworth Farm was voted a Hidden Gem, one of 12 in the district, for Horsham District Year of Culture 2019. It was awarded Local Wildlife Site status in 2021.
Access
It is free and open to the public all year round. Public access is by foot, cycle or horseback. Main paths are accessible by people using wheelchairs or mobility scooters. There is limited car parking outside the Queensway/Chesworth Lane entrance. Some neighbouring roads feature public footpath or bridleway access and offer limited parking (subject to local restrictions).
