Welcome to Trotton with Chithurst Parish Council

Trotton with Chithurst is a civic parish a few miles West of Midhurst, in the heart of the picturesque South Downs National Park. In the latest ONS statistics, it had approximately 140 households with a total population of 338. It contains the two villages of Trotton and Chithurst, together with the hamlet of Dumpford and it straddles the A272 road and the Rother river.

The parish has a long and varied history, best summarised by British History Online HERE.

This site is maintained by the parish council - the bottom layer of local government, run entirely by volunteers (7 council members and a voluntary clerk). It is financed by a "precept" collected with the rates by the district council, and amounting to roughly £1 per month for each resident.

We try to include on this website a summary of the services we provide as a parish council but also to provide a community resource, with other local information and news. We hope you can find what you are looking for by browsing or searching the site; if not, please contact us.
