The village occupies an area of only six miles long and two miles across. It runs from the top of the South Downs bordering Falmer, down the chalk escarpment through the greensand ridge northwards to the edge of the Wealden clay. Most of its land is still in farming use.

East Chiltington includes the award winning Jolly Sportsman pub, a beautiful 13th Century church, a playing fi eld and a children’s play area. The village is a thriving community and hosts annual events.
