Introduction

North Horsham Parish is situated to the north of the growing and thriving market town of Horsham. The Parish is bordered by Forest Neighbourhood Council and Denne Neighbourhood Council in the south and west, Warnham Parish Council in the west, Rusper Parish Council in the north and Colgate Parish Council in the east.

The Parish is predominantly a built up residential area, although there are some exceptional open space areas. A large portion of North Horsham is on the northern side of the A264 and is largely rural in nature although there are plans to build on that space in the future.

New schools were built and community halls can be found in both Roffey (Roffey Millennium Hall) and Holbrook (North Heath Hall and Holbrook Tythe Barn). Holbrook Tythe Barn was an old barn that was reconstructed on site.

There are three main shopping areas in North Horsham: Bartholomew Way, Coltsfoot Drive and Fitzalan Road with numerous small businesses dotted around the parish.

There are several green open spaces in North Horsham Parish. The Parish Council is responsible for Earles Meadow and the open space that runs to Amberley Close along with some play parks.
